Twin Stick
Here are some pics of my latest conversion. It's an old Cedar Hobbies Twin Stick, that has been flown a lot with Magnum .40s, and Magnum .52 4-strokes.
It now has a pair of Turnigy SK 42-50 650 kv motors and H/W 60a ESCs. Will be using a 5s 5000mah pack, or if I get really nuts, a 6s pack.[:-]
Had to cut 12x8 props down to 11 1/2" to clear the fuse. With 5s, puts out about 800 watts per motor, and the model weighs 7 1/4 lbs.
Hope to fly next weekend, as I still have 1 esc on order.

RE: Twin Stick
Terry, neat model and conversion. Sticks always seem to fly "better than expected". I hope that you get lots more flying hours on her. Thanks for sharing.
