          Your are taking about a bj26 stock with an x645 and 2s lipos? That is exactly what I want to do, got everything but the prop. Any idea on the temps of the motor and ESC, got to be warm.

              I would angle the strut down 1 or 2 degrees.

                  Look at this diagram...The high lift will make the bow ride lower.

                    Try it at 1 to 2 degrees at first.
