RE: 3W157 Performance

I did try to run a 30x10 xoar prop. The rpm improved to 5600 but the pulling power was less. A 32x10 xoar may have been a better choice. Oh well another 50 bucks thrown away. John

RE: Antenna Location for 2.4 Radios

I have read the instructions thank you. They sell receiver extensions up to 24 inches in length for a reason. Anyone else know if moving the antenna further from the receiver enhances the reception?
