Default RE: Up elevator action

throtle controls altitude elevator controls speed,full size aircraft rule that applies to models.while you can climp with the addition of elevator at the same throtle setting it also slows the plane down and the climb will stop.we are not talking about overpowered planes with unlimitted vertical performance here.set your plane at half throtlle trimmed foe level flight try it yourself or consider how a proper landing is down.power is cut to desend and not to increase speed by adding down elevator.
