e-Hirobo SRB Quark - Lepton - XRB Coaxial > Lepton with stretch kit

So I finally had a chance to fly my lepton with the full stretch kit after a very long winter here in quebec. So far all I can say is Wow! It is like a completely different machine. I did not push it too hard just some very fast flying with a few loops, rolls and stall turns, but it flies great no more tail wag and just a little less sensitive in cyclic response however, I have heard that with the bigger blades aggressive maneuvers like tic tocs can bog the motor down. Is there any truth to this and is there anything else I should watch out for? Thanks in advance for any replies.

uh-1b flyer,

It's great ! But how's your tail and the main gear. I have tried the full sketch kit also in my 6S set up, but the tail is out of control when I pop it up. And the main gear also completely gone after few trail. Are flying 4s or 5s??

regards,

Absolutely no problem with the tail so far and the main gear seems to be holding up just fine but I have only done 3 flights. I am flying on 4S.

When you say the tail is out of control what exactly do you mean? Is it that the heli rotates to the left when you give a sharp collective input or is it wagging? I found that without the stretch kit my tail always had a slight wag and would occassionally kick out on me when the heli was banked over a lot in a high speed turn. What I leaned is that you must use a much more aggressive throttle curve than hirobo reccommends and a very low gyro gain setting.
