RE: Great Planes VPP
Update, I flew the VPP Saturday at an airshow we had. It was about the 5th flight for it. I have backed the pitch down to 60% for all flight modes and I could get it to hover nose down, but not go backwards or stop a dive. I did one nose down hover for a few secs and was flying forward and rolling and my friend said "is that thing supposed to be smoking?"
Needless to say, very few flights, and the speed control and motor smoked. I will send it back this week and see what they will do about it. Hopefully that was the problem all along. Something in it had to be bad. I can't see overloading it flying like I was. I wasn't even into the hard core 4D yet. I am wondering if this setup is worth the trouble.
