Very nice! The square tubing is a great idea , wish AQ thought of that, the round tubes don't do anything. Now only if one can solder these square tubes on the plate, but I don't know if it's even possible.
Always liked your mod on the Rio, I had gone a different route and my much lower 1500kv PB motor did not give me torque roll , but I am sure yours is faster. There are trade-offs. I used a 42mm plastic prop, was too cheap to go with a "real" prop. lol...
I crashed my Rio once, straight onto the shore, Lenny has been reminding me to look out for the trees now!:roflol:
I am sure with all the info you provided, someone who is thinking along these lines would benefit from your first hand knowledge/opinion.
Cheers!

Billy,
Great info I think I will try one of those motors in my Re Volt. Yes life has a way of screwing with our Hobby time.
