Nice video Tim. I put a cheater on mine and got really good stock performance. Yours flys just fine without it though.

By the way, are you using the motor cone on the back? I test fitted mine, but it sticks up a little over the fan, and the wire cover/air intake doesn't line up with the rudder opening. Got some sanding to do to bring it down, and angle it a little to help with keeping the motor cool.

Great question, yes I'm using the aft cone, I sanded it down about an 1/8 inch and the wires are on top and run right under the motor and down to the center. So with a little work it will fit well. thanks for the comment.
