Default RE: CP Pro/DX7 power problem??

Used a gauge for the pitch to verify and I am prtty much on the money for the pitch settings. My pitch curve is 48-56-62-72-77 It was 48-65-75-90-100. I lowered it to see if it would make a difference with a lower pitch. It did not. My throttle curve is 0-44-65-85-100. Main rotor speed sounds fine until the last few clicks in throttle and I also noticed it when applying a semi quick cyclic command. Maybe it does have trouble overcoming the Super Skid weight, but I seem to remember prior to the skid upgrade it was doing the same thing on the old skids. Maybe I will have to "unmodify" the skids to zero in on the problem. I am waiting for the DD tail to come in and the last thing I want is to add to the weight problem. I think I would take the DD mod over the super skid based on the short life of single tail motors.

As far as pitch goes, I think the manual says you can go from -12 to +12 and I am at -10 and +10. I guess there is just more tinkering to be done. It really does behave well from about 70 to 90 percent on throttle though.
