Default RE: speed for regular guys

I fly out of Bellport NY at the LIARS field, I am the current Pres. Full throttle with a friend launching " highly suggested to have someone else throw it. First split second is critical. Mine pulled to the right and and needed some up trim. I slowed it down to about 100 and trimmed it out. Flew great, solid and straight. Glide path is not to long but acceptable. Don't be afraid, Its just a fancy piece of wood!
I fly the tree line at our field which is about a 500 by 400 rectangle, No problem keeping it in the field. I did have some overheating problems however. Bob. i'm using 30% heli fuel. I thought I might add a little more castor oil? Maybe just richen it up I guess.
