I have an 8 lb. and a 10 lb. Bob Cat and am interested in your experience. The 10 lb. one has not been flown with prop. At 10 lb. the minimum flight speed (stall speed) is likely to be 35 mph, which will be difficult to achieve from grass and difficult to land.
My turbine bobcat started life just over 9lb is now nearlly 10 with various bits added on. I have not noticed and differences in the flying of it. The wing loading maybe higher but it shows no bad tendancies, other than landing faster than I would have liked that is why I have now fitted the spilt flaps.

XairFlyer...What I mean by spoilerons is that both ailerons raise up instead down like flaps. This is done on planes that don't have seperate flaps and ailerons. I'm not sure of which post, but there was a post maybe no more than two pages back that mentioned spoilerons.
We would know this better as crow braking, unless you mean to reflex them up quite a bit. We do use this method on our prangster fun fly models, it makes a very steep decent rate, dont know if I would like that on a Jet, but a little bit of crow braking might help, will have an experiment next day I fly it.
