Every plane is a little different. I balance mine at the rear-most recommended point and use the factory throws on low-rate. High-rate elevator only for taxi.

I know this post is three years old, but I just had to say...that's a crappy comment there bud, considering you don't even know him. He has five years (now eight) of flying experience AND instructs other people. He can probably fly circles around your old ass!

You outta try Savox servos. I know several advanced IMAC guys that use them.

A bit of history Tarhell comes from the Civil war when the North Carolinaians held the line in a battle like "their heels were dipped in tar"

I don't think any positive results are achieved by the comments in post 52. Let's rise above that kind of thing and stick to airplanes, okay?

No, they weren't. But you don't need to lower yourself.

I'm not lowering myself. I just reacted to that guy's comments which were ridiculous. It's always the same thing with old people. Just because you were doing it long before them automatically means that you know more.

Well, I'm one of the old guys, too. Experience has it's benefits, but always needs to be tempered with humility. That applies to all ages.

Let's return the topic to a really nice P-47?
