Weather is bad, and I was itching to find something to fly, but first had to design and build it.
This is how I built my YOU F. O. flying disc.  It was easy to build and I show you how, plus a couple of flights in strong winds Day and Night. Using the Satellite City industrial Super Glue made it easy. http://www.caglue.com Make sure to keep enough nose weight for CG about 5 inches back from the Nose, and use half rates for Elevons, as it is very sensitive in the wind.
 I shut the motor off, just before landing. On my original mini from about 10 years ago, I had landing wire skids to prevent prop hitting. On my big nitro versions, I had landing gear, so I could take off from the ground. Make sure to watch the update video and the night flight video. You will love this plane, I am sure. Make sure to put the lead weight in the nose as I show in my update video. It needs to be nose heavy. Here are my original vids. and the update link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynHtmfYr_Lc or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28tIp5usrF8&t=445s You FO Update and CG questions answered. https://youtu.be/epMYSdqeSDs
