Tuning a Large Plane (25kg, 3.6m wingspan)

Hi All,

I wondering if anyone has good experience with tuning a large plane? The plane is 25kg with a 3.6m wingspan, Battery powered with a T-motor AT8025 KV190 (70cc equivalent) motor and 24’’x10 propeller. The build is good, its balanced correctly and everything functions well on the ground.

I am moving to the next step of ground testing and tuning then flight tuning. Does anyone have good experience in tuning larger Planes and can offer some solid advice or the Do’s & Don’ts compared to smaller Plane tuning. Is AUTOTUNE still a good option or avoid it for a manual tune?

Cheers,

Wiki is good, you may want to set AUTOTUNE_LEVEL to a lower value than the default.
