Default GP .40 EXTRA 300s and CG

Well, it depends on what you mean by snap... The plane will do any maneuver on the factory specs including beautiful snaps on no more than 1/4" aft. Mine flies with a Saito .91 and a 14 x 6 prop up front and the engine change along with 30% more throws made more difference in the performance than when I moved the CG. For more action I built a Sig SE with a Saito .72 to hover and out perform the extra-300 for 3D. Are you wanting to hover and such or just get the feel to the point of snapping with just full elevator?

By the way mine is a kit and runns 20% expo on the elevator and 35% on the ailerons.
