I am running an extra set of flybar weights and it helps alot, slows the beast down some. Also where are you keeping the trim for your throttle? I turn mine up to a click or 2 under 50% as soon as the 3in1 has initialized I can get take-off a little before 75% throttle. I am somewhat wary about the plastiblades. My friend got a set and the first boomstrike shattered his tail boom, and I get enough boomstrikes to put me off the plasti blades. At least on the Blade, I have a set on my walkera it has asturdy enough tail I think....not that it matters, it decided all on its own to dive forwards and bury itself right under the front bumper of my car so it'll be down for a while AGAIN. The plastiblades survived for the most part though. Only some minor gouging on the tips nothing a dremel and some patience rebalancing them and they would be almost good as new.
