I never really looked down at the throttle to see how much is left, but when I throttle out of a TR, it feels like I'm adding about 1/4 throttle or a little bit more to get to full throttle. So if I had to guess, it would be about 5/8-3/4 throttle for hovering and TR. I'm kindof interested to see what a Bambula prop would do for the 180. Might order one and see.

So is it bad to a moki 210 in the edge because i just bought one to put in mine.I have a 160 in it now but in a hover it seems to take full power just to pull it out.

I don't think you can have to much available power. I do however think you might have a problem with prop clearance. The moki will swing a 20" prop.
Just something to ponder. Maybe a 1.8 Moki would be better. It likes an 18" prop.
