I also had IB42's in the back as opposed to the lighter Lipo's but it still nose dived like mad??
Any idea's |
Throttle control?
Power on over the jump will keep the nose up. Lifting off will make it nosedive.
If confidence is the issue as you mention - attack the jumps - keeping the nose up will keep your head up.
