    Thank you for your video, very helpful and informative. I made a few flights but propeller seems small and plane cannot climb very well. What do you think, without damaging the stock esc (30A) or motor, what is the biggest prop can we use? Is it safe to use 3x5x3 (three blade) propeller?

    some info. design F L A W S. (buyer be aware) at :52, the main wing has Positive aoi; this is a less, energy efficient configuration. at 1:57, the use of a curved vert-stab leading edge is a Not recommended. at 2:10, WRONG. the control horn and linkage alignment Should be Perpendicular to the hinge line. at 2:38, WRONG. there should be NO Bends in pushrods; unless Absolutely necessary. at :52 and 5:26, an Optimal thrust line/angle has Not been used; this Wonkiness is a factor in the dive at launch behavior. googletranslate
