Default RE: Thrust Ratios

Yep, I agree... I've got it set noticably forward, and very slight ailerons and elevator on low rates. I had a Saito 150 in this plane last season, took off like a wet sock. The motor was a little worn out. Now, with a saito 180, it spins a 18x6 about 9000 RPM, but at 13+ pounds, its going to have to come in with some speed.

I'll be fine, just a little paranoid. I put a lot of time into re-doing this plane, don't want to have to mess with it again for a while.
