Default RE: BVM KINGCAT ENGINE ANGLE

I have just finished building and test flying my Jetco (see thread) which is a Bobcat / Kingcat style of model although of more modest cost!!

I set the model up with about 10 degrees of down thrust on the turbine as there were no instructions on this. On the first flight I had to punch in all my down trim to get it to fly level under power. On landing I added some more downthrust and the second flight was fine.

It must be a quirk of this model type that will take a smarter brain than me to explain! Although I do agree with you that the Kingcat looks extreem.
