I am guessing from a series of prop strikes and hard flights, this is how I was flying for about 4-5 days. It just goes to show 3dhs motor boxes and acp props are stronger than the aluminium x mounts.

I was amazed at some of the kids at the FLI East and their flying skills. Justin told me he started flying at 18 months on the simulator, and at age 3 with a real plane. He's 9 now, and he's a pretty incredible airplane and heli pilot. Makes me wish I had started years ago.

scarface those aluminum x mounts can break even without prop strikes. I went through several of them on my 51 slick before I got one that was stronger.

he...thanks... so turns out it would be better to make a loop for the fuel line on top of the tank, would take longer to start but safer for downlines?
