This is dissapointing: 133.7 kilometer/hour = 83.077 328 402 mile/hour (mph)


Bluemax - I'm flying using the Spektrum HELI version (I hate the ratcheting throttle of airplane radios)....anyway, this puts the idle-up switch (3 position) on the top left. This is what I'm using. I did not invoke the "landing" stuff. Switch all the way back: Normal flight, 1 click towards me, 50% of the spoilers, second click, fully deployed. I actually took the elevator mixing out, if I slow it down properly before I deploy, it just "slows down"....so I throttle back a bit, drop the wheels, then add in spoilers on downwind, and full spoilers on final.

I guess I like doing it manually

I'm going to really bolt on the weston pipe next weekend. My buddy at the field, Jim, has his setup with the GMS 76 and Weston, and we're about the same speed, although he's about 1 lb heavieer than me, needing extra weight to balance the heavier motor.
