Default sluggish control with fiberglass blades

Hi,

i just flew my caliber 5 minutes ago with my new SAB fiberglass blades.
I thought the heli would be more responsive, but it's just the opposite

The heli handles like a tank. With the woodies it was much more
responsive...

Is this normal? I'm really bothered with it...

Thanks,
Wouter

actually it's only the cyclic that handles differently
Collective is still the same.
That might help to specify

Well: If you haven't changed any thing in your radio
that would cause it to be sluggish. The only thing i can
think of is maybe the blades are designed different or
mostly likely they are heavier and you need to up the
engine rpms or you have the wrong size blades.

ok, i found out what made it fly that bad.

During the repair i accidently switched to RRS instead
of FRS. Makes a whole difference!!!
