got the 65'' YAK dialed!
Well Akahoverit come over and we got this thing dialed.
The APC 15x4 works the best, instant spool up. put a bunch more throws in everything,
moved the c/g back.
Akahoverit was going crazy with it, with a huge smile on his face, he was speechless, NOT!
(have to know him)
I still can't do those 45% harriers, but I can live with that.
Well I learned one big lesson on flying today, I just have to fly it like it's stolen!
I love this plane, thanks Jim.
Later,

I have mine ready to test fly tomorrow... Where is your cg? I am about an inch behind the spar with on OS 1.08. What was the secret to the harrier problem? I might have more questions after I fly it. Any pics of yours? Thanks

My c/g is neutral when inverted.
Like I said, I couldn't get those 45% harriers, but that's okay, it does everything
so good.
I have a 1100 mah Nicad secured in the left wing, than you can move that forward and aft for c/g adjustments, mine is at the rear.
Plus I'm running a mousse can so that lightened up the front alot over the stock muffler.
Sorry no pics, don't have a digi camera, wish I did, this baby glows!

Dave, that is awesome. Don't you just love the Pro Bros! Thanks Akahoverit for helping out Dave with his setup. Now all you need is practice practice practice and about 10 gallons of ProBro fuel.
Might have to try that 15-4 prop setup..Been using the 16-4 but maybe that's too much? So who's got the specs on doing the mousse can muffler for the 90 engines?
