Just a tip when setting up your radio. After calibration, go into your throttle programming. I don't know what radio you have, but I am using a JR 662. If you notice, you likely have -100% travel adj. when the stick is at idle, and +100% travel adj.at full throttle. You may find that you have little low end resolution for fine throttle adjustments when landing, especially if you like to three point your bird. Increase the low end travel adj. to around -110%. At this setting, the bird will continue flying at about 4 or 5 clicks of throttle, yet you can ease it to the ground with the remaining clicks of resolution. I found that without this increased resolution, the bird either wanted to flylevel or stall, which meant I had to come in hot. I have my real planes set up this way also, so nothing unreal about this.
