I wouldn't fly with anything over 600g in 70mm, especially the F-35 which already needs to go on a diet.

All the retracts are secure with little slop, the wheels are true, aligned and run freely, and I have a brace on the nosegear but nothing seems to improve the ground handling.
Has anyone else encountered this? And if so, how did you fix it?

Hi guys remaidend my f35 thismorn. New fuse. No crash this time. If anyone cares. I took 1 inch off the inboard ailerons. Glued it to the wings Found it hard to manage previously. ... Just an intermediate pilot. This time still with 10 or 12 mm aileron travel. It was a blast. Fun little rocketship

In case, like me, you need tailweight to move the CG back to where you want it, I created a 3D printed nozzle to replace the foam one. It weighs about 60g (depends on the printing parameters). It is also more accurate.
STL fie is at:
A more accurate and heavier nozzle for the F-35 V3. The existing foam nozzle plugs into the rear fuselage and is held in place with tacky glue. It is easily removed and this fits in its place. I suggest taping over the join inside the tailpipe to help ensure a smooth airflow. Being heavier than the foam nozzle, this can be used as tailweight in case the CG needs to be moved aft.

Nice detailing on the nozzle kallend! If I ever replace the FW EDF with a lighter unit--I'll seriously consider using that. Looks SO much better than the stock foam one.

So my F-35 was bought second hand and has given me some issues ever since I have had it. It is a blast to fly but never really has been my own... so I gutted it and will be getting a kit plus to start over. I will also be changing out the fan unit to something I have used in a couple other planes that worked really well and sounds much different that the other stuff out there. I will be using the Powerfun 12 blade unit with a Cyclone 2960 2200kv inrunner. Should be pretty good in this plane! My FMS F-18 really came to life with this set up and the SkySword really liked that set up! Will get started on it next week when it arrives...Check me out on youtube at https://www.youtube.com/user/gooniac33

It's quite stunnig how well spoilerons work with this!!¡!!
