rigging a f-arc 1600

So I've launched it twice and am getting a feel for it, but I am curious about the internal trim strap (string) that comes out by the spar. I assume it is like the strap inside the charger I, but haven't really fiddled with it yet.

launching in super light winds is annoying, but doable:thumbup:

I've pulled the string about 4" on each side with mine. Agreed, light wind launching such a high AR is a pain but it's great once you get it in the air.
