Hi Buly,
The canard time is probably a better option than the
few beers method.

Both options will probably get you airborn, but the
canard time may yeild the better landing.

I have the spacers with my IVO prop to switch to a 2
blade prop, so there is even another reason that I'd
like to see how you do without the turbo.

Would be nice to get a 3 vs 2 blade comparison.

Steve

Steve, I'm trying to get some canard time first. Or
just have few  beers and go:)
Waiting for the 2 blade conversion parts to come any
day. Want to see  what RPM I'll get with the 2 blade.
