It won't fly with out ailerons, but you could fly it in the  
contest...because the contest isn't exactly "2 Channel" its Fly What You  
Brought...however, its high start and NO LANDING glide path control  devices!  So no 
spoilers or flaps.  Its why the Easy Glider foamie  works or the Radian Electric. 
The Easy has alierons, and the Radian has a  motor.
 
Without landing control stopping a big ship like the Super AVA or Bubble  
Dancer or Vandal is next to impossible, not to mention getting them down  
somewhere under the flight time is a trick
 
Remember the spirit of this series is to INCLUDE pilots, not exclude...so  
since Tony has missed a couple he'd have his hands full winning the series 
but  its possible.

There will be prizes at the end by the way!!!  I have some Digital  Servos 
and an Easy Glider already.
 
Gordy

LOL.  Actually, I wonder how my other Vandal would work without  
operational control surfaces on the wing,..............hmmmmmm.

wrist.
