    Idle Up

    I started using an idle up switch once I dead sticked my first 30cc lol. Having you idle three or four clicks above reliable idle for take off and landing is a must now. Easy to do with a jr just set your throttle curve with your high rates. My new graupner has it's own dedicated idle up...

    3D and CG

    I think tail heavy comes in handy for high alpha harrier and rollers. And tail heavy planes seem to hold a hover better IMHO. But yes you can 3d a neutral or nose heavy plane but I would think it requires more input on the sticks when preforming these manoeuvres. I'm no expert either still...

    Knife edge spin.

    I find full right rudder full down elev a little left aileron and then increase power to really whip it lol. Too much Aileron puts you into a flatspin. Not having enough elev travel will cause a poor ke spin. My 3hds 92" edge will go perfect 90 degrees with max elev
