She's all mounted, secured and radio gear is programmed! Next step is to plug in the laptop again and set up the ESC and put this baby to the test!

I don't know if I'm dreaming or not but even sitting on the bench and testing the throttle it feels as if it has A LOT more punch than the old VXL6s. It's almost as if it takes near half the time to spin up to top revs.

Anyway, I should have a run within a week or two so I'll post back with results. I plan on running the current prop until I get the whole thing dialed in and running smooth before I go ahead and change it for the bigger one.
