        Still waiting for the front page to load!!!

        This forum's too slow for me, I prefer something faster, like a fat MCPX or the BMFA ads!!!

          I use a twin tail set up non brushless, I am still test flying but it does seem to work ,sounds fab too ,like a million hornets, lol .

          I fit my lipo in from the front then put the cano back on this is a little awkward but that's the price you par for the right c of g .

              Stock tail motor is back on, she's 51g with 300nano and 43 without.
              I have MH swash, titanium main shaft, boom support, 140mm boom, carbon cage.
              Battery on charge, we'll see how she does.

                  The Extreme blades will make it sluggish also. They are nice and stable but add a fair bit more weight in the air and bog the motor. But they do make it feel like a bigger heli in terms of flight characteristics. Great for sport type flying but require a bit more skill to flip it

                    My heli was definately more lively with kbdd blades but i got fed up with replacing them all the time, my extreme ones are very tough in comparison.

                      I got 4 mins before noticing some slow down, going to test all 6 batteries here, maybe 1 is dud, maybe the tail just draws extra and weighs extra to make such a difference.

                          Well it's certainly better than the 2.5 mins I was getting, last one charging now, done them all separately to test.
