Default RE: E-flite Ultimate FX

Thanks for the info. I originally had a 11x8 on this plane and the torque was much worse. The 12x6 prop actually made a big difference but it's still twitchy on the torque rolling. I will try the lower pitch prop as soon as I fix the firewall....

Had an accident. Tried to take off at a rough soccer field. The plane nosed over at take off, prop hit the dirt at full speed and broke the stick mount right out of the firewall. A little surgery should fix it.

As far as the weight issue, I didn't even think about that. My 450 Outrunner is an 1/2 ounce heavier than the 400. And I'm not using a mini receiver, just my Hitec-8 channel receiver. Maybe the extra weight might account for the rocking motion.

I'll keep you guys posted once I get a new stick mount. Thanks again.
