Default RE: Classic Flash Tips?

Hi guys,

I have the standard Blue Angels Flash originally with a PST 800 but now repowered with a 1300.

Problem I have is getting it to rotate quickly especially off grass, it tends to compress the noseleg (ProLynx with Blue spring) and assume a neg angle and truffle hunt 80+ meters before rotation requiring heaps of elevator to rotate. Did it with both motors and the 1300 was fitted thinking it was a power issue...normal flight once airborne and landing is perfect.

Can someone help please with suggestions on AoA on ground, stiffer nose spring, takeoff technique?

Thanks heaps

Rene
