RE: Distance judging
I know, I had anticipated a slight increase in speed, but not with the engine revving up 400 or so RPM. I was at about 9 feet and wanted to come down a few feet and then settle it in, but that few feet got eaten up quickly with the slight burst of throttle. I think I will ask about the throttle burst over in the gas engine forum, it was pretty strange that it did that. It was idling so nice and low. <div>
</div><div>400 RPM is the difference between flying and falling on this plane, it will just keep going level with 400 more RPM above idle. Idle is 1600, which is perfect, 2000 RPM will pull it along the ground. </div>
