Finally, we flew a latest plane - Primus III.
In one of test fly (engine stop in air) I set new personal glide record: distance 976 meters from 68 meters altitude.

My bad, forgot about the two exhaust sticking out on top. :)).
I guess that leaves you with option of airbrakes( may be small one on sides of fuse like in Mig )
Great job! What a beast! Love it.
Sure, brake function on gas engine. :) And folding prop...
Vladimir,
In recent past , there was similar case discussed in another blog. The solution that came up in discussion was use " brake function " in Esc. Hope that might help you in this case too unless you are using folding props( which you are not).
Alfred, it's not a problem. Simple ask. :))))
Ask youself - how many people build 5 meter drones? What experience people need to do this?
I understand you, trust me, any problem I seen.
Sincerely
Vladimir
Vladimir, I'm really sorry.
My mother language is Spanish and I just wanted to help.
How can I know that you have 30+ years of experience?
I will not help anyone again. I don't want to disturb people and It's not
nice to be missunderstood,
Alfred.
Dear Alfred.
I flew RC airplanes ( and sailplanes too ) for last +30 years. You really think I'm idiot and don't know what I need to do?
Anyway, thanks for suggestions. :))
With 1/3 throttle start to add deflection and feel if you need more. Use it when you're gliding for landing.
For take the off you can use very little also.
I pretty know theory, but in practice everything look bit differed. Where and when you try you suggested?
Flaps induce drag so that can help you to less distance landings.
