Default RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

Hey Brenner Thanks for everything. heres a pic of my Worlds Visa converted and it flys so straight and true I love it. I only have 3% down elev mixed to throttle and maybe a .5% mix rudder to ail/elev for the Knife edge triangles. This plane is one of 2 or 3 we built with the elipitical which was considerably slower then the stock Visa but has plenty of speed when need be. Props are reshaped to the APC's as close as I could make them and with the 25C TP 5000's its got plenty mo. Front is a 20.5x20 and the rear is 20.75x22. Here is a pic of the polished drive I am using at this time. I am going to use the painted one with the stars as the back up.


The second pic slithered across my shoes when I was doing the knife edge loop. I came very close to crashing lol as well as something else.
