I've used an 1100 and could go larger and remove a bit of nose ballast, plenty of room width wise but tight for depth so worth checking your battery sizes

In answer to Mikes question, yes I have maidened mine today, and it flies really well. Built as per the plan, FMS fan and 3s 1800 . Flies on just over half throttle. I was careful to tuck everything out of the way internally as far as pos

Hi Cliff A clubmate had one of these, out of the box it was very tail heavy with a 3s 2200 in and needed a hefty piece of lead in the chin behind the grill. Flew horribly without it and superbly with it. Nice model

You could always turn it into an Autogyro

Nice job Rich, that flies eally well. Any reason why the roll and pitch servos are on the right on this one? Rich

Rich That looks really well dialled in on the three blades. We're those your old Rex blades used on the two blade setup ? Rich

Hi Mike I don't know where you are based but if you are into autogyros the best thing you can do is to get yourself along to one of the many little Autogyronut gatherings we have during the year. They are hosted by various of us all over the country throuout the year and the dates are posted here on the Autogyronut pages and other forums. You really won't meet a friendlier more welcoming group of modellers and you will fly more and crash less because we all learn from each other, and have a great time into the bargain. Promise Cheers Rich E

Well I can report that flies really nicely, bags of power in hand. Managed to get a quick up round and down on camera -
Just a note of caution.......I personally have experienced signal loss using an old DX7, easy to blame the gear but it turned out to be a dodgy deans connector. I have also witnessed four examples of brand new modelsof a very well known epo artf that are shipped with a very cheap version of a deans plug where the battery to esc connection would make and break simply by wobbling the connection. Rule out all the obvious stuff first I say
