One thing I would like to mention is that I have been running 30% brake. I have about 50 flights on this Ice80/ Q80. And last Sunday (on the 4th flight) when I went into the figure M, I drew the first upline, and stall, come down, and at the bottom in the radius (not the normal castle screech if you have too much brake) it made a really weird noise and the controller cut out. I had to go to 0 throttle then back up twice before I got it to come back on. All was good because it came back on and it saved my Neptuno. So, I talked with Castle. Good correspondence but didn't get an answer as to if I can or should still fly the controller. It ran up fine on the ground. I may go fly it this weekend at my field with a bigger runway and run the data logger. So, in talking to a few people, they said maybe there is too much brake set. Well, I tried it at 35% first off, and that was too much brake for sure. Really screechy (lol, is that a word? hehe) 30% is good for it and the plane IMO. But I may have to go down or switch back to the Jeti. I'll fly it once at 30%, then down at 25% and log both flights and see how I like the feel of 25%.

I really like the Q80 and the ICE 80. Good setup.

Edit. BTW, Kevin Sung, if you read this, this was all your fault! lol. You put the jinx on me at Hollister. It happened the next flight after you left! hehe
