    K.I.S.S. power system?

    Most chargers now days have a LiFe or A123 setting. You didn't say what brand of receiver your using. Some like Spektrum that I fly don't like low voltage at all that's why I run A123's.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Last night I fuel proofed the servo tray and the area under it. The pipe ends right there so I figured better safe than sorry.

    Prop failure....... Have you had one??

    Were any of the others loose? Any wear on the prop to account for the dust?
