Thanks John
I can also pull the release when at reduced throttle, that will also help.
This is the 3rd stooge I have built. We simply will not talk about the first (I was in mid teens), the plane ended up a total loss.
The second was similar to this one, except that I had a hold cable and loop permanently attached to the back of the fuse. Held a piped .60 at full song easily.

Well no rain this morning, but scattered lightning so again no flying, and as much back pain as I was in last night I simply ain't interested in any place than my lazy boy.

Had a lower EMG Thursday. End of this month I get a couple of spinal injections.

I am going to go out no matter what and get some supplies for my next CL plane I am planning. A sheet wing bi-plane. .ST .34 power.

I am intending to make a pair of composite sheet wings. 2 layers of $ tree foam laminated together to foam the core. Carbon spars, and Kevlar drag lines in a x pattern, plus carbon caps on either side of the spars. and then sheet both sides with 1/16" sheet balsa. Inter-plane ca-bane (spelling????) struts to tie both wings together, plus functional flying wires from 1/2A Kevlar flying lines. I also have plans to cut the radio weight by almost half.
