Update:
- Fixed exhaust bug causing engine dies out (recent change on catalytic converter).

@SS Edmund Fitzgerald,
If it does slalom, slow down and try to speed up slowly, use stabilizer and takeoff against wind if there is wind.

hey for some reason once i land this in the water its stuck like a boat without paddles.
what i mean is that once i land i cant get the thing to take back off, it rocks side to side, kinda like slalom

I usually use 1 and 2. I used 3, 4 and 5 once and I don't like complexity or cost in CPU performance.
