Impressive little airplane.
I have several other profiles of this size, but for the price, this one is a winner.
Really enjoying the way if flies.
Suits my style.
A mix of precision and freestyle.
Handles the wind too.

Give one a try...

I’m looking for suggestions for the amount of throw for control services. I’m not a 3D flyer and would really to set up my Swift for more like sport flying.
Thanks!

I set up my spektrum IX14, C or F channel with three diffeent amounts of throw. Say channel 1 at 100%, 2 at 80 and 3 50-60%. Test that to see if its to little or to much for your flying. Adjust from there. I personally us my C channel for Aileron Throw and F channel for elevator throw. I do the same percentage on both.
