You can always use a prop saver that will let the prop fold off to one side and not break when it hits the ground

Ok thanks - I looked up Google Images and can see how a prop saver works. I was only thinking in terms of folding props. Thanks for the tip.

I think I will turn down the throttle to 20% till I can get a hang of the controls. My ailerons, rudder and elev are already at 40%. BTW I am using a 2200 KV motor and 3s 1500 Mah Battery.

The CG is very deceptive (10 cm behind the leading edge). It does not seem to have a range - a few mm back or forth makes it tip easily. So I am keeping the nose up a bit so hopefully in flight it shifts back. Not sure if that is the right think to do.

Is the cg for this kind of plane that important as compared to a glider?
