Default RE: Learning to hover?

Yes, I always make sure to cut the throttle after I crash or land, I usually do it long before the plane hits the ground, I guess with the excitment of my new plane I somehow forgot to cut the throttle after it tipped over. I guess it was a good lesson anyways.

Im not shure if the GWS 300 will work, Im a bit confused about the mtoor names, ive seen some called 360's, some 300's and some 370's but they all seems to be the same can size, I guess theyre all the same but I dont know.

I ended up getting a great planes 370 motor, from the specs it sounds like it migth be better than the stock motor. Claims to turn up to 30,000 rpm's no-load, has some high strength magnets, etc.

I also ordered a GWS heat sink, Itll probobly do nothing more than add a few grams of weight but it was only $1.75 and I thought it looked neat so I got one.
