[RELEASED] IniBuilds Messerschmitt Bf 108 Taifun

This is interesting article: Too Windy? - AOPA

The conclusion of flying with the wind is one - it depends on your experience and training. The problem we have is that you can’t control the plane with a crosswind despite various tricks. It just didn’t seem to respond.

I also tried with different brakes, to no avail.

Most take offs looks like this (with crosswind):

Notice that at speed 30-40kts (60-75km/h) the wind was added so the model starts turn suddenly. It doesn’t work like this “suddenly”. Normally you should be able to control it with deflection of a rudder and even with ailerons in extreme cases. Nothing works here. Now I had somewhere wind only 7kts from the side and it was quite similar.
