Can I take a snow rain check on that full scale Bill?
The small vertical fins on the horizontal stabs appear to be used only when on floats.  The adverse yaw could be something with the ailerons throws being too far out of balance on the up-and-down travel.  The FZ Beaver manual shows them to be equal.  Now I am going to recheck mine because I think the up travel was about 2mm greater than their down travel.

 Had a great time at the swap meet with Simon and Bill as we lined our pockets with gold.
I took home a FZ Beaver.
So I now belong to the Temac Beavers?
I will endeavor to hold up the proud tradition of glassy landings.
Now that I'm in lets not let anybody else join.
Do we have a secret handshake or anything that I should know about?

Actually, I can.

Hey!  I came across this nice video of a Beaver flown from a moving boat.

This type of flying is a lot of fun and you really get a good look at the plane while travelling along with it.

I've done it before and I hope to get a chance to do it some more some day  :)

You might as well watch it with the sound tuned off.  the only audio available is the noise from the wind.

Yep!  FB is ready for float flying!  Take a look at the picture (from Sunday) that I was finally able to upload... in the "Other Events" section of the forum.

Everyone has been taking photos of their models using beer bottles as a size reference.

Here's one of my Hangar 9 Beaver.

the question is how cold does it keep the beer ;)
