Hi Jarvis,
You might want to check your motor and ensure it has a P42 gearbox on it. When I received my Neu 3.5D it had a P32 gearbox on it which was totally unsuitable for pattern use due to the play in the gearbox (ie. the prop wobbled), it has since been retrofitted with a P42 and is much better. You might also want to periodically check your motor pinion, a number of them have come loose.
I note your 3D is 1360kv while your 2Y is 1100kv, if you are going to use one of them choose the 3D and prop it back a bit. The Neu F3A is 1300kv so your 3D is closest to that in performance. The lower kv motor don't seem to be fast enough in the air for pattern.
For what is worth I would go with your Axi, less fuss and more reliable from my experience.

Hi Jarvis,
The Neu 1515/3D works great on 10 cells for a 2meter pattern airplane. Much more power and better efficiency than you'll get from anything else. I would go with P42 gearbox. The P32 works fine if you are flying sportsman or intermediate.... in other words not performing any snaps.
I upgraded my motor with a P42 a few years back, and its been working flawlessly ever since.
