Just get the ballbearing kit for the hardware and call it good for now. The Graupner stuff is not that bad. You don't need to spend a bundle of cash for something that will make a 0.5% difference in overall results. I have a set I plan to use on a similar-sized (29") cat in the future.

I believe the bearings are 8 mm x 4 mm and are available from bocabearings.com (measure first, they may be 9 mm x 4 mm). Boca Bearings has a huge selection and good service. The bearing kit may also be available here at OSE, and the props are available here as well.A nation of sheep breeds a government of wolvesComment

should i run water cooling for esc and motor?Comment

Standard Graupner 4 mm carbon-filled props work with the Graupner hardware. They are relatively inexpensive, require no extensive balancing, and are readily available here. If you switch hardware, you will need to get Octura (or equivalent) metal props for 3/16" shaft. More expensive and sharpening/balancing is mandatory.A nation of sheep breeds a government of wolvesComment

Boca does metric, you just have to look for the button to search metric as opposed to inch sizes.

location is Randolph Park .... 1 is on Oct 26th - the 2nd is on Nov 9th!
