Ok, heres the equipment run down for what Im flying.

Rimfire motor
Electrifly BL-8 ESC
Futaba S3108 servos
E-tec 3cell 1250mah lipo.
Bluebird Rx

The CG is dead on to the manual. Seems to work fine. Might try moving it back a little and see what happens.
Scrap every piece of info they gave you with the rimfire. Run a 10x3.8 prop....perfection.

Thing hovers like a dream. Once you get it stable, it will pretty much just sit there (assuming your flying indoors with no wind)

The plane really flys well indoors. Its ok outdoors, but go inside and the thing turns into a whole other airplane.
