I was dissapointed when i first got the Ventus.i was my first scale glider and i expected it to fly great.but it didn't.it was difficult to fly and stalled really easily and badly.not what i expected.
i talked to fred about it and he advised changing the incidence of the stab.this totally transformed the Ventus.it's now flys as you'd expect.it can be slowed to a crawl and flown just above stall for termaling and yet it speeds up pretty well too and you can really get it moving.it's not really an aerobatic ship but,with a bit of speed and height all the basics are no problem.high speed dives along the front of the slope are lots a fun as it makes a nice screech/scream as it cut through the air.
found some other people online with a similar problem with the stab incidence.i guess it's an issue with production.have just adjusted the incidence again, as the first time i did it i didn't have a incidence meter.so will have to retrim and balance(incidence affects CoG) next time i fly.
apart from the incidence problem it's a really nice glider to fly (for light to medium lift this what i fly) and it looks great!
