@dilisvarskvlavi Sure, do what you want.
OMG, I'm in love with this floatplane!! She's fast enough and easily maneuverable enough WITH the floats to duke it out on even terms with a P-51D I'd wager! Take-off was typically, full up on elevator, throttle up and she lifted off without a hitch. Given that this was the first floatplane I've flown with a centerline float I knew I had to be careful of the nose of the central float from pitching down on landing. I ran her through her paces, "scouted" both the Behemoth and Tiny, then landed a short distance from an uninhabited Island and just sat there and chilled for a while. This one was saved! XD I hope you won't mind if I create a derivative design if I credit you? That's how much fun I think this bird can be. lol
@Acer500 Try 50% while pulling up, and after gaining speed throttle up more.
@TheOwlAce maybe I'm throttling up to fast or something
@Acer500 Really? It doesnt do that for me.
Have to pull up hard to stop from nose-diving during takeoff, but works very well in all other aspects :)
