Stuart,</P>
<P>I'm currently flying Chris Moon's company airplane while I'm waiting on getting mine finished. I have over 200 flights on mine and I'm running the rudder at full speed. I never understood the thought process of slowing it down. I know others that have, but just for the heck of it, I tried it once and it made the snaps go from great, to noticeably sloppier. I love BJ's airplanes, but I haven't always agreed with his setups. I've had no issues running them at full speed on either of my Nuances, or the Episode,</P>

<BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #5167c6 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">Ok this one seems strange to me. So I thought I would ask it here. I <br>
have been reading some of the threads on RCU, especially the ones on the <br>
BJ Craft Nuance and Episode as I have an Episode coming (Thanks Chris). <br>
Several times it has been mentioned the recommendation for a slower <br>
rudder servo speed, especially if you prefer an aft CG. Now that just <br>
seems counter intuitive. Maybeart we should dig out our old KPS 15's.<br>
Anyone have any thoughts on that?<br>
<br>
Now for a situation with the same subject that I really thought was <br>
quite amusing (up to now).<br>
last summer one of our club members brought out a Byron P-51 Mustang <br>
with the original 4 blade prop and Byro reduction drive. Pretty cool <br>
plane but definitely smaller that I thought it was. Well anyway he was <br>
having a tough time landing it but finally greased it in perfectly at a <br>
fairly high rate of speed. A second later on the flair and it would <br>
have been retracts through the wings. Anyway he asked me to look at his <br>
radio as it had started to rain when he was flying and when he landed <br>
the screen was blank. The surfaces still moved but the elevator servo <br>
was really slow. I told him something was wrong there too but he <br>
corrected me saying he slowed down his elevator servo on purpose for <br>
more scale realism. Now I really do still think that is funny.<br>
