So the non ratcheting gearcase is harder to come off plane with, the 3.2 has a non ratcheting gearcaseBased on how well the xb21 come off plane with the 250 vs my 200 I almost think ratcheting is better... Now if it locks up probably different story
^^^^^ This! No issues on my xb21/treehunnart.I think the ratcheting vs non-ratcheting issue is overblown. I believe the other aspects of setup and balance are more important, at least at the speeds i'm running.
