How fast can an MSR fly in straight line? Every time I get it to go more than about 4 MPH in a straight line it banks sharply to the right. I have seen videos of these flying at about 15 MPH, most of these flights seem to be somewhat circular.
Is it possible for an experienced pilot to fly these in a straight line at 15 MPH?
What's an MSR? What's it made of?
Look for wing twisting -- it sounds like one wing or the other is buckling a bit as the speed goes up, and is twisting as a consequence.
4MPH should be a fast walk, have someone else fly the plane while you walk behind it and look at the wings, or pick a day with just the right wind speed and fly it in front of you.
Let me suggest the helicopter guys might be better equipped to answer.

I am now able to make the MSR fly very fast in a straight line. I replaced my original MSR with a new one, it was wearing out from the 500 crashes. I did not adjust the new one for high performance, but, did have the transmitter on high rates.
It seems that the key to making the MSR fly fast in a straight line rather than veering sharply off to the right is to give it a little left stick along with the forward stick.
