Flight test of drowned Hobby Zone T-28

It survived the soaking in a playa lake. It still works with the rudder disabled, but it is still far too light to manage any kind of wind. I took it out today and almost lost it. An Art Tech TB20 Sport/Trainer  from Nitroplanes did much better in the same wind, even though it is smaller. The TB20 weighs a bit more, has thicker wings, and is more streamlined. It's really fun to fly. The T-28, on the other hand, is a bit of a struggle to control unless conditions are dead calm.
