Looking good brother!

Do you always use a powerbox?

This is my first venture with any power distribution device. I think for safety's sake and trying to be redundant, I'll be using the PowerBox Competition SRS in the bigger airplanes with the Maxima SL receivers from now on. It's a whole 5 oz of extra security.

The PowerExpander is only a couple of ounces at best so it's great for a 50-70cc airplane.

Almost forgot to do this yesterday, so I did it today.

No more EZ link. Wish I could replace the ball link on the throttle arm with a shiny new Dubro one, but I red locktited that sucker on there... She ain't going nowhere...

Well she flies again. Everything pretty much solid, just need to tweak a few things tomorrow and she'll be ready to be abused. Engine has 8 flights total on it now (about 40-45 minutes) so I think we're ready to start tweaking the needles a bit and get rid of the burbling.

Noticed the cylinders hitting about 160*F each so I will definitely put some baffling back in the cowl (they were right around 130-135*F before) before this weekend.
