Otsikko: Throttle hold negative pitch range

one more comment, why I like to use the full pitch range (positive and negative) in throttle hold:
When power fails at low altitude, it's not that uncommon to land upside down.
The more pitch, the more headspeed you can kill before it drops the last 20 cm. The same, naturally, for an upright auto.

So far I've had (I think) two inverted landings, one with the Raptor, one with the 700. Total damage, one ball link. That wouldn't have been possible with only -5 degs negative pitch.

For a beginner, it's maybe still better to use -5, and remember "flame out => stick all the way down".
