Default Diablotin XL any information

I don't have anything on the engine, straight from the firewall. I've been flying it like that for a long time and it TR ok in my book. I'm not really thinking about where my sticks are when I do that, I'm dialing what's required to go where I want it to go.
I'm sure that Wingspan is right though and adjusting the engine would make life easier, I'll do it next time the cowling is off.

Falcon, it seems like you're really into harrier!! ;>)
From my experience with mine, the harrier isn't as 'pretty' as with my H9 Extra. I mean that the nose up angle is less and it doesn't look like true 3D, but more like very slow flying since relatively flat. Trying to keep it nose up at 45 like the Extra is a fight because the balance point between throttle and elevator is thinner. With the Extra, you quickly have a feel on what's required and even if you're off a bit on the throttle or elevator, it still looks good. With the Diablotin, the right throttle is critical. Don't know why, maybe the thick profile or the very lightweight
