I am considering building an electric r/c version of a West Wings model for
indoor flight, converted to rudder and elevator operation. I am considering
either the Puss Moth or the Hawker Hart. Has anyone done this before, can
anyone give me some tips? I want to be able to fly slow and accurate if
possible, havent decided wether or not to go for the quicker build that the
monoplane would probably give.
Thanks in advance

Its do-able, - best to check out scale and indoor forums on
www.ezonemag.com.

Use plenty of dihedral on these small RO models, especially if used outside.
