Foofy. The boy has to cope with quite a lot of gyroscopic effect on his with that massive prop . Bear in mind he is a class flyer and if he struggles on occasion mere mortals "could end up in trouble" I remember my C50 leccy would wind up in certain manouvres. I remember snaps from knife edge and back could sometimes carry on going for and extra 3\4 turn!!!! At first I thought radio was to blame but a 56" span 6lb model with an 18" prop creates a good deal of gyroscopic so The boys 22" prop must be noticible.

The boy comment required


Go flying. Good choice I would opt for the in cowl flex pipe from Weston also. Its both light and QQQQQ

Berk left the holes open on mine but you could profilm over them before you fuel proof with THIN ZAP If you use a dubro it will be fit an forget.
