Re: Plane does not go up
Whoops, I didn't see this and I think some other people might've missed it too.
Please provide details(can be found in past forums), such as number of winds, torque, rubber density, CG location, weight of airplane, etc.
My best guess is that you probably aren't winding enough, or don't have enough torque. But if you're at around 40 winds and it still isn't climbing, I'd look into your wing warp or incidence(more information can be found on this by reading this year's forums and the instructions your kit came with).
Why are you using partial motors, by the way?

anything'll fly if you throw it hard enough
