Hi all I have a problem on my koala. :( I have 618 in there and she is going well just one small problem. If im at say 90% power +/- 5200 and I open the throttle fully she takes a dip in rpm before going up? Maybe 200/300 rpm so it is rather big the it doesnt affect the plane but it defenetly there....

Hi all
