Default CAP 232 40 engine?

ville....oh boy....I had one. Did the same thing, hs-85 in wing and elevator. One on each side. I put a 61fx in it. Well....

I have g2 and the cap flys the same on the g2 as mine with the 61. REAL hard to hover. I put a 46 in it on the g2 and it hoverd great. the cap didnt last long enough to get a 46 in it. the elevator flutterd.....I saved it some how! took it home and put stock servos in the tail. that cured the flutter prob in the tail. the next week end i flew it i got two tanks on it. the third tank the ailron flutterd and it went in......HARD...there wasnt much to pick up.

i hope you listen to my warning....I loved the plane and will build another in the future but, it will be a os 50 or irvine 53 or ys 63. Nothing heavy for sure. build light with stock sevos and only 4 servos. the plane didnt respond to flaperons. I did like the bigger ailrons though.

good luck!!
