Not doubting any thing Acesmike just said, It all makes sense.
But with the 50SX on her with a 11x6 APC this plane really Hauls A**! the only
thing I had a problem with was at higher speeds the controls became a little
sensitive for me. I hope to solve that tendency by reducing my throws some
on low rates, and adding some Expo. In theory that should do it! I could tell
a BIG difference on my first flight before I made that first turn after take off!
Half throttle IS the same as WOT with the EVO motor. But she still slows down
real nice for landing. Loops are as big as you want to make them, and rolls at
higher speeds (3/4 throttle or above) are lightening quick. That tendency to turn
to the left on take off is gone.. and you only need half throttle with very little
elevator and she's airbourne. All this from a motor the same size and a little
less wieght than the EVO .45! It fits in the same spot with NO modes!
