OK, been flying with Steve and his Red Rebel 2m today. This was his first jet model, actually first time he had a go was first turbine flight ever. When I left the field he had completed flight 14 with not a tip touch or single bounce. The guys in my club are super excited about the Rebel.
i took verniers with me, Steve has a Powerbox Mercury and the gyro is set at 30% ailerons, 32% elevator and 35% rudder. His movements in that mode are 19mm each way Aileron, 28mm each way elevator and rudder is max movement possible, with landing fuel, his model with the hatch off (you can pick it up under the lip each side) is just on the back edge of the tube. So in front of the former by a couple of mm.
You can just see his 6 1/2 minute flight level in the tank with a P-130Rx ( lots of power)
