Default Help - biplane won't do outside loop

Yeah. I have been thinking it is a bit underpowered. So no more Mr. Nice Guy!. Out goes the old OS .52 and in goes the Saito .72. According to the Horizon website, they have it in a 7.5 lbs plane and get unlimited vertical. The Phaeton, with the .72 should be a few ounces shy of 7 lbs. It only weghs 1.3 ounces more than the .52 and it is about 1/2" longer. I will be able to go from a brass to an aluminum spinner, balance the plane and keep the weight virtually the same.
