I assume you tried pulling your throttle trim all the way down.

You assume incorrectly. I looked and the arm is down but the trim is at the half way. Set the trim all the way down and installed the batteries. It works normally. But why. Why did the one side work and not the other side? Why has this not done this to other aircraft I own? Thank you very much for your help with that.Ron - AMA 1025

Thank you OV10, I will order some.
I have read almost the entire thread and seen numerous posts stating the BB are a known weak link and several people state they have bypassed it for primary flight controls, sounds like the route I will take as well. Does anyone have the pin out for the ribbon cables? yes I am just being lazy but if someone has solved this riddle it would save this grease monkey from playing with avionics systems.
There are many posts regarding installing gyros to solve the tail wag issue, the real deal had Yaw Dampers installed at the factory so for the scale purist a gyro is allowed.

My set up...
The motors work well. They may be a little too hot of a set up, see my prop suggestion below. I got the 900kV since they were about right and the only ones in stock. I have one of these in 790kV and may get a second one and smaller props and then go 6S using one 6200mAh battery- https://www.rcjuice.com/motor-esc/br...ner-motor.html
The ESCs were out of a Tigercat, nice that they come with long battery leads that are more than long enough for the Bronco. You'll have to change the bullet connectors for the motors- https://www.motionrc.com/products/fr...less-esc-xt-60
I picked APCe 11x8 propellers in normal and pusher. I think 11x7 would be a better overall pick, but I used these- https://www.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXASTW
Tower Hobbies carries an expansive collection of RC cars, RC airplanes, RC boats, model trains, sot cars, and supplies for all hobbyists.
Spinners. You have to carve the opening on the pusher one.- https://www.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXBMY2
