Ian, i know what your saying if i'd had a 2.4ghz rx in the cupboard i would have used it but this jr 7 channel has been in 2 previous gas engine planes with absolutely no glitches so i was more than happy to use it again.
c of g seems right at 10 cm after 5 flights i haven't felt the need to shift it at all.
i'm gonna try an apc prop this week which will shift a little and see how it feels.
this thing does't seem to be too sensitive to trim adjustments, like i said this will be a keeper unless i do something stupid....................
