Except for Orange, slightly longer than stock main blades/orange tail blades, and nanoforce 180 mAh 45c lipos, the model is stock. My tx is a dx7s. I've had 100 flights with zero problems. I've crashed the model hard enough twice to bend a spindle shaft. The second crash also dislodged the board and I had to refit the vibe-grommets. After makeing repairs the model flies as good as always.

The Nano CPS can fly in some wind too. I fly it in 5-10 mph regularly no problem. I get reliable 5min 20 sec packs. I wonder how long it will go before needing a main or tail motor change-out. I log my packs so time will tell and I'll keep folks posted...

Edit #1: I just flew a nice pack in a stiff breeze, gusting up to 12mph, so I decided to change the idle-up TC as follows to allow for a bit more punch: 0,30,65,70,100. The little ship did quite well. I'm still dialing things in to my liking...
