Whine, the sticktion is bad...whine, whine. It makes it very difficult to aim or track at higher powers, whine. Slo-mo would help with the sticktion. When I get some time I'll take it apart and see if I can do anything to reduce the schticktion. Other than that, I agree it's very stable with a 15 lb load and I'm going to try it with 15 lb on each side. I expect it will do well with that too.
