I am now a very happy flyer
i test flew the upgraded Riot tonight and its awesome with the MX2 power train in, it fly s unlimited vertical outside loops at 1/3 throttle and will go vertical from a stall
Thanks for the advice i used as suggested a small amount of right and down thrust tapped on a piece of weight to balance
and seems pretty good i now need to loctite it all back together and fix a counter weight permanently
THANKS AGAIN FOR THE ADVICE
Andy..... B) :woohoo:

i checked the cog before flight and seemed ok and yes phill your right it did have some down and right angle possibly not as much as the original, but before i did this it flew great after it was hyper responsive to control in that the slightest touch of up elevator caused a tight loop a roll that used to be smooth and on its axis became a cork screw of maybe 3m Diameter and off power it was really hard to control wings dropping left and right
very odd anyway it will be fun to see a riot on steroids
andy a new MX is on the cards

I have an MX which is surplus - Its been repaired during which the bulkhead was re-secured but it flies straight.
PM me if your interested
