SS throttle question
Can I fly my SS at 1/2 throttle and still be able to maneuver it well? At what point would I reduce the throttle? (I assume it has to be at full throttle to take off...even with a hand launch?)
Thanks for the help

RE: SS throttle question
In the Kiwi vernacular, the only thing to do is "suck it and see!" EVERY SS is different so there are no hard and fast rules - you just have to try it out.

RE: SS throttle question
My SS will take off in about 20' and climb out very scale like at 1/3 throttle.
" scale like " can that be used in the same sentence with the SS?
But you know what I mean.
It depends on the battery, motor, prop, ground, weather, CG.
