        Diego, the build looks great!!! I'm surprised how close the antenna matches. I have that deans connector if you want to do another rendezvous. Just let me know.

                    I will use the biggest mAh 3S lipo that will fit.

                    I intend on that battery as a backup if I can't get a bigger one. I hope to get a 1550 or so in there.

                      I love the little plastic fling catcher to stop the spray of grease from the shaft, will be fitting one to my whiplash and cat and n2 hydro (once the refits finished)

                      good work

                          Really you cant run these thing for more than 1min at a time without overheating if you dont have watercooling. I cant get mine down over 1 volt by the end of the day

                            My stock one can, and this one has a totally different motor.
                            Plus I have a water pickup in the rudder this time, so if I need cooling, it's there!

                              Diego, you didn't tell them you were running a can of compressed air on the third channel to keep the cabin temp down at 50 degrees.

                              Shame on you!

                              LMAO!!!



                              Oh BTW, I'll get you some more of that dry ice you wanted
