I have mine at what I thought was high rates as per the manual, and I find it reacts like an old grandma. I know I can add alot more throw but I was wondering what your set up at.
@thewhistler I generally have mine set up for 100% at high, and then set up a general low rates around 70-75% for mire docile planes(not 3d). I always maiden with around 20-30% expo and change accordingly. This plane is definitely not the most aerobatic out of the um's. Many of the people who own this say it flies much heavier and less aerobatic than the rest, but it is still nice if you can appreciate how "big" it flies for its size.
Hey man awesome review. Im thinking im gonna get this plane sooner or later. Btw, just though i would say i actually enjoy flying in the wind sometimes with my parkzone UM sukhoi, because aimed into the wind it takes it up like a kite then i dive straight down :D just thought i would say. Happy flying!
Awesome plane, just got one myself. Even more awesome is the song you chose! I happened to meet Joe Satriani on dec. 21 of last year. Awesome guy! Awesome plane! Oh and I use hyperion 160mah 1s and they give a few hundred more rpm's than the stock 150's not to mention a longer and more consistent flight.
i was gonna get this one but got the newer sukohi xp which is a complete blast to fly
it can do mostly or all types of aerobatics even harriers and prop hanging, athough i had a 200mah lipo on board but the rest was stock, i think i may get the corsair just for micro scale flying, not so much aerobatics, or perhaps the p51 as thats suposed to be better flying, anyhoos great review and flying
Hey I`m the first,on your first,lol, I can talk to anyone but I can`t fly,yet ,you look scared before flight & relaxed after the flight,look at the camera,& do something crazy before,or talk to the camera like u talk to Dad ,great job,I love that plane but looks to fast for me.
What is your set up like?

Excellent review, and great flying!
My wing root also cracked.
I concur, the LG makes a world of difference.
Do you have the throws maxed out, as well? (lol)

Try the TP 160mAh 25C 1S Lipo. You'll get a stronger flight! :)
