"...or use the thicker motor with more winds and try to adjust the trim so
it doesn't go up so fast."
One way to kill a fast climb to the ceiling is to backwind the motor. This
is done by winding slightly more turns than called for and then reversing
the winder and backing off some turns. Depending on how many turns are
backed off, this technique will kill a fast climb and subsequent rapid
ceiling contact. You'll need to experiment to see just how this works and
how many turns you can back off before killing the climb too much. Keep
notes.
I'm sure that Bob knows this, but I think it's worth mentioning...
The way to get maximum time from a given model and rubber motor is to
wind the rubber to maximum winds and then back off turns to keep the
model off of the ceiling. Rather than counting winds you can use a
torque meter to determine how much to unwind.
