Ok. this plane is just horrible in gusty conditions. It's like trying to control a paper napkin in a hurricane. It's everywhere all the time as you can see from my hilarious landing. It's a really fun and stable plane when it's calm though.

The plane is a Hangar 9 1:5 scale Sopwith Camel that I converted to electric. It weighs less than 3500 g and has a wingspan of 61". I made a special battery/motor mount that makes the plane 500 g lighter than stock.
