Oh I agree, I can usually pitch down slightly and the increase in rpm gives me the feel I want. This being a relatively large stator and low KV the increase in response and drop in top end wasn’t a good trade off. If it wasn’t for ground clearance I’d have gone with a 14x4 and been happy, but I’ll probably go back to the 13x6
The reason why it has trouble punching out is because it's so heavy for a 3d plane(I used to own one). The Flex Innovations Extra 300 does better overall for about the same price.
Yeah it is heavy, my neighbor has some Flex stuff, a cap I believe and it does fly amazing. I pounced on a good FB deal but I don’t think it’s worth the $429 or whatever horizon sells it for.
