Guys

I think if you read through this thread from everyone who has flown a Lightning, what you get is an idea that everyone has there own idea of how things should feel. (I'm talking control surface here)

The comments made on previous threads were designed to help new pilots of this aeroplane before they had a test flight-Probably one of the earliest reasons for RCU Jet page was to help in exactly this situation.
The Lightning is a lovely aeroplane, my example took me longer than usual to dial-in with a set up that felt how I like things, some pilots like sharp control feel (Rob says he doesn't like Expo, so he's one of those people and the lightning should suit him just fine)
Ali flew an aeroplane that had three of four flights, so the set up was still being tweeked-several people have flown the same aeroplane since and two of these people are buying Lightnings as a result.
If you like a big pattern type aeroplane, then the Lightning is good for you-It is not a Boomerang XL, it needs to be travelling to feel right.

I'll be flying mine again at our Jet Modellers AGM this coming Sunday.
