For cap232:

I did use the hole in the bottom of the motorbox after all, and did use the vent cutout. Even though I'm not running a pipe, I thought it'd help move more cooling air past the engine.



Thanks to Joe Smith for sending me some longer prop bolts so I could get my spinner mounted up!


Since I added a little weight up front, I moved my battery back a few inches onto the rudder servo tray.

maidened my 72 yesterday. what a sweet and smooth airplane, im already in love. my one qualm is the new v2 design...on a 6s5000 setup i dont think it is possible to get a forward cg. i have my battery shoved all the way forward (motrolfly 4330 and castle ice 100 all the way up front on the standoffs) and i still rise a bit inverted. might have to invest in some 6s6000 packs unfortunately.

Wouldn't a few ounces of lead be cheaper?
