I wouldn't fly that airplane very fast. It has pretty big ailerons and you run the risk of fluttering one or both and crashing the airplane. The Uproar is a fun fly airplane, it's not really meant to be a "go fast" airplane.

Just my $.02 worth...

Status: offline 		I flew this airplane in a strong wind one day, on a high speed down wind I stripped both aileron servos! Luckily I heard the flutter and killed power immediatly and was able to land the plane. Do NOT overspeed this plane or it will self destruct!

Status: offline 		If your wanting to have some fun flying ths plane, go with a 11.5 x 4 apc prop.... you'll have a blast. Much better for 3d manuvers.

Status: offline 		Sometimes experience is the best teacher.... if you wanna go fast with it try a 9x8 APC prop. But I told ya before, that airplane is not meant to fly fast so I take no responsablity for what happens to it.

Good Luck, you'll need it with that prop! Send us a picture of it if it turns out to be uneventful.:
