No, the hacker A50-16S is a 6S motor for 17"-19" props

hmmm....yes but only the switched channels are limited to 10 amps. the remaining channels are 40 amp--more than enough for me.

thanks for the link, though, that powerblock looks good, too.

By the way, if you are in the west, Progressive RC and EPBuddy have almost exactly the same set of products and Progressive is Seattle-based so stuff gets to you in 1-2 days via $5 shipping.

Yeah, you're not far from my Sister. I was addressing the broad "you" as in y'all, but some how my Texan roots broke down :-)

theres two servo leads, a deans lead and a balance lead on my EPBuddy a123's....the one I use for the Rx/servos has both servo leads plugged in to the Rx for power, but I only have ONE switch so i have to run one through the switch and unplug one every time...meaning I have to take the canopy off every flight to unplug the system....is everybody using these?....

I really don't think I would admit to being "from" Texas (other than "far away from")....

I will admit to having "lived" in Texas (through no fault of my own)...but I left as soon as I could!!

Had an awesome day of flying the crap out of my 59 Slick and 68 Velox. Scraped the SFG twice on low KE passes with the Velox. It's a custom look.......

That's awesome!

I'm not actually "from" Texas, I'm from the home of the Atomic Bomb: Los Alamos, New Mexico. But I spent my 6th grade year in Austin (Worst year of my life) while my Dad took a sabatical to get his PhD and then I went to university in Austin (University of Texas at Austin, best 4 years of my life up to that point) and cannot wait to get back to Austin.

So, as the bumper stickers say -- I'm not a native texan, but I got there as fast as I could :-)

That said, if you tried to put me in any other city in Texas I would have to pass. It's not Texas that I like, it's Austin :-) Well, I could probably happily live in San Antonio as well.

OK, I have a Velox for sale and no bites, so I think I will gather the items to build it soon...

Question.... DLE 20 or 30???
