Hi Doug,
Yes, I am also a bit surprised that I didn't have to adjust the thrust. I know that on my IMAC planes I had to really increase right thrust and down thrust. I was almost going to pre-adjust the thrust before I flew it the first time but decided to just give it a try. I can't figure out why I didn't need to change thrust, perhaps I had too much to begin with and was just compensating for it in flight. I am going to watch it very carefully to see if it is off slightly. I will also turn off all mixes and see if there is any noticeable difference.

Perhaps one factor is that yesterday I was staying off the throttle a lot more than before. I was trying to match the horizontal and vertical speed with the downline speed. Since this has such great downline braking it is much slower than with the 2 blade. I wasn't going anywhere near full throttle on uplines. I didn't notice any yaw on uplines, but I should probably do more full throttle long vertical uplines to verify things.
