Default RE: Electro Uproar

I tried a 10x5 and a 10x8 last night. The 10x5 did slow the plane down but performance was very lackluster. The 10x8 increased performance some but it was no where near the 11x6 or 12x? that I had previously run. This setup demands at least an 11" prop I guess. I need to either put larger wheels on her or bend a new taller LG. I think the weight add or either option is going to be a wash so I guess I will slap some 3.5: wheels on her for sake of ease and up to the 11 or 12" prop tonight provided the wind stays reasonable. I have not officially timed any of the flights yet as I am doing a lot of tweaking at this point and the winds have been fairly high.
