Thanks the for all the information. I've got my Blade flying quite well now on my Futaba 9c. I got everything straight and am now playing with the throttle and pitch curves. I read somewhere that they fly better with the head speed high. I've changed my normal throttle curve to be -> 0%, 80%, 98%, 100%, 100%. Idle up is set at 100% at all levels but I haven't used this much yet. With this the throttle is running 100% whenever flying. It is quite stable and seems to make adjusting the proportional and REVO mix much easier as the head rpm is nearly constant.

I used a Berg 5/6 receiver crystal from
