A simple plane. Controls are: vtol up for airbrakes and throttle to adjust propeller blade pitch (This plane uses manual blade pitch control and the throttle governor). I recommend throttling to around 70%-80% for most purposes. For takeoff, pitch up then slowly throttle up to 30%-40%. Once it breaks 100mph you can throttle up to 70%-80%.
Note:
This plane is great for indy air race. I managed to do the race in 52 seconds.
