40,000+ rpms depending on the setup. I also have a meteor. The stock setup isn't bad, I would definately upgrade to a 4 cell battery if it doesn't come with one by now. MyMeteorsetup is a 80mm Habu 32 setup with a 6 cell battery that turns about 43000 rpms and produces about 1700 watts. The plane easily makes 120+mph passes and has unlimited verticle.
Enjoy,
-Jesse

Unless you have extremely good piloting skills.. you are doomed. Get a trainer to start with!

Flew this weekend for the first time in 16 years. What a nice flying plane. Only needed some down trim to fly level. Plenty of power. Things sure have changed since leaving the hobby. Now have 4 flights and will need to get more batterys. Kevin
