    Ah yes having the balance point set properly is critical no matter what motor's your running.

    Tuning needs a lot of time, and I mean a lot. BTW no offense but I like nit-picking so can we continue with "center" instead of "centre" ? Thank you.

    oh, I apologize, really this was not to be mentioned to correct your English, of course not (I'm a dumb non-native speaker).

    It's fine thanks mate. It all sorted itself out with a reboot. The rear wasn't dropping so I wasn't getting the uphill feeling. I still have a lot of learning to do but I'm happy for now. Thanks for the help
