So is prop sharpening/balancing pretty straight forward? I've only purchased a couple props for my mg, and I bought them s&b. I'd like to try and do it myself though.Comment

You need a balancer, files, sandpaper and respirator. It can be tricky to do well depending on your ability

Make sure you think about the dust you create. You don't want to breathe it in. I use water or oil while filing or sanding. Then clean the mess up after and dispose of the waste. Also think about the dust in your clothes. A regular dust mask probably isn't good enough. I use a $20 3m dual element respirator.32" carbon rivercat single 4s 102mph, 27” mini Rivercat 92mph, kbb34 91mph, jessej micro cat(too fast) wasComment

Yeh buddy! Thanks bro! How far off center should the rudder be mounted? I'll just refer back to your thread see how it looks and go from there. Your battery trays, really just used the silicone? Is it mixed with resin or anything? I don't want anything to move, also I remember you saying your servo came lose, what caused that? Thanks luck youda manComment

On the trays, yes just silicone. It actually allows movement which is good. If the trays are too stiff they're prone to break loose. I have a tube of it from Keith bradley I'll be happy to send you. It sounds crazy and I couldn't wrap my head around it at first, but it works awesome.
The servo I had originally used cheap glue.
After I re glued with west systems it was fine.
Lmk if you want the silicone bro, no charge.
