High Quality Soaring & Silent Flight DVD’s

Performance Tuning


Soaring expert Paul Naton takes you through all of the steps required to maximize the performance of your sailplane. You will learn how to properly rig and balance your plane so that it will fly correctly from the first test flight. Paul teaches you how to build your plane straight and true, set the incidence and decalage angles, locale the best centre of gravity, and set up your control throws with a computer radio. You will also learn about adverse yaw and how to set differentials to control it. Demonstrations of common flight problems are included along with detailed explanations of cures. This high quality DVD will have you flying at a new level of performance in no time.

                    The most comprehensive tuning program available!

Learning to correctly set up both your radio program and sailplane can be challenging and frustrating. Performance Tuning taught by expert Paul Naton will help you learn how to get your plane to fly at peak performance. We guarantee this new educational program will shave months off of your learning curve! The tips and techniques you will learn can be applied to any type of model, slope or thermal, from foam combat wings to state-of-the-art F3X gliders.

About 80% of all tuning and radio set up adjustments happen before the first flight. Paul will teach you how to build straight and rig your plane properly including techniques for precise servo and pushrod installations. Paul will also walk you through his methods for setting up the centre of gravity, wing and elevator decalage, and how to set up your radio for basic through to 6 channel gliders.

V-tail planes can be notoriously hard to set up, but Paul will show you how to optimize your v-tail using decalage and rudder differential. He will show you some radio programming tricks too.

There are flight demonstrations showing centre of gravity tests, trimming, the "dive" test, flap settings, and adverse yaw correction.

There is a great deal of misinformation concerning sailplane tuning and not too many pilots really understand how to correctly trim their soarers. The Performance Tuning DVD will help anyone get the most from their equipment and will take the fun level of their soaring experience to new levels.
