My hog is a real beast at 9lbs 12oz. I've got a Saito 100 installed and it will hover (quite well actually!) and can pull the plane vertical FOREVER! the plane balanced perfectly with the battery in the compartment just under the fuel tank.
I simply dont believe a saito 100 with hover a 9-3/4 pound plane, much less pull out like you say.[&o]
