    I also notice one more thing that concerns me. When i deflect the elevator i notice some flexing of the servo in the servo tray. I can try to wiggle it by hand and it feels like the aft part of the tray is pretty beefy. The front part theres not so much beef. Its on a thinner part of the fuse...

    A wattaplane slick is a really fun plane. Plus you can beat the crap out of them. The fly pretty precise and will do any 3d you throw at it. Its definitely a good plane to learn on.

    I tried medium timing and at startup there was a slight whining weezing motor sound. I didn't try LOW. also on the props the 14x7 was a Xoar and the 15x6 was an APC. gonna try to get some 3300 or something closer.
