Bryan Hebert is the owner of CK Aero, long-time F3A competitor, aircraft designer, and one of the most respected authorities in RC aerobatics when it comes to airplane setup and trimming.
In this conversation, we discuss Bryan's journey into Pattern flying, his experience designing competition aircraft, the evolution of modern F3A, and the differences between monoplanes, biplanes, glow, electric, and contra-drive power systems.
We also spend considerable time discussing trimming philosophy, how top competitors approach airplane setup, common mistakes pilots make, and why a properly trimmed airplane can have such a significant impact on performance.
Whether you fly Pattern, IMAC, freestyle, or simply enjoy learning more about aircraft design, there is a wealth of knowledge packed into this discussion.
