Then using a needle nose plyers just but a tick of cup in the prop tips. (yea.. its plastic but you can still do it). Adjust the turn fin stright up and down for the first few runs and make sure you sharpen the outside to the inside of the leading edge. hold it wide open at launch.. (from a dead start) or half throttle from a hand lauch. HANG ON! lol.. Grim
