Default Servos and weight

Digitals - had the rudder laying around from a burnt up Sig - smooth and fast for rudder. The tail servos just seemed to fit. Wanted to try a digital on throttle to see about a real accurate idle - definitely worked.

Minis anywhere would be way slow but light. Used to always use mini on throttle but an ultra low idle with the accuracy of a digital makes it slow on a dime. Won't use any more slow servos.

Lighter battery pack would be awesome.

Keep it light yes.

Lightest wheels Kavan. I have H9 light wheels but Kavan at least an ounce lighter.

Still push for 4 stroke. A world of difference between a 14x6 to a 15x5. Started with a 13x6. Too much pitch and your back in the 80's with an Ugly Stick on a 60 with a pipe.

Bigger the prop more right thrust and you will need some down.

This plane gains nothing with speed.

I am 1/2" back from recommended rear and it could go much further back. I can literally stop in the air nose up with no stall.

I was hoping for more out of this plane. But it does keep you focused when you ring it out.
