Default Noob needs help trimming plane Please.

Newberry,

I bought my airplane from the same person on ebay. He sells at least 10 a week so there are a lot of people out there with this plane. I watched them sell for a very long time and was able to buy one for $60 with $18 shipping and then a could hours later I got a second one for $52 and $10 shipping. Not bad because I've seen this airplane selling all over the internet for $129 to $149. I have never flown the second plane as I always want a spare ready to go. I've been through 4 wings now and one elevator.

It is a good quality airplane. I also have a Wattage J3 Piper cub and you wouldn't believe how cheap, flimpsy, and under powered it is. Also the NiCad batteries in it don't even last near 5 minutes and there is no speed control (on/off only). That plane was $99 on sale (normally $129), so the Slope Diver is a much better bargain.

I am running my Slope Diver stock and I am using the center hole in the control horns.

Have fun and let me know how it goes for you. I've been flying mine at least once a week for 3 batteries-worth.
