Default RE: E-flite Ultimate FX

When you are hovering into the wind it will want to nose into the wind. Any airplane will do that. As for the torque, a lower pitch prop will help that dramatically no matter what motor you are using. The rocking motion, I assume you are talking about wing rocking, is caused by the extra weight of the motor and some torque (I am going to take the time to explane it). Try moving the cg back just a TINY bit at a time to compensate for the high overall weight of the plane. Once again, I still think if you just change the prop that you will love the change in the way the plane will fly and may not have to make any other changes. I had some of these problems until I changed the prop and now it is like a dream. Also, just remember, even with a 1 mph breeze, you have to fly the plane differently that if you were inside. Hope all that helps.
