Fantastic little airplane. A 21 is more engine than it needs, so be ready to fly a rocket! Standard servos will work fine, but minis will make things easier.

I've got the same combo. Motor runs well. The wonder scoots along with it, have fun.

I was a little hesitant to open a thread with the word wound in it

But then I thought SHEESH, like I post twice in a row without a misspelling !

A buddy @ my home field in In. has had a couple of them. One of them he put a Magnum 40 in it. It was clocked at 100mph+. Before you fly it, loosen up your fingers cause it IS a rocket ship!!!

Instead of standard servos, consider something like the Hitec HS 82MG. Has plenty of torque and a lot lighter.

15 years ago, we used OS 25s in them and put them on trike gear - and flew combat with them! I've flown them with the following: Veco .19; Fox .15 and .19; OS 25FP, 25FSR, 32, and 40FP. All flew well, but be ready to turn as it gets tiny QUICK! My favorite was the Fox .19 without landing gear. The lighter you keep them the better they fly. Best to have a nother person to launch it and help trim it on the maiden flight.

I got one of those ASP .21s from HK and it's a little monster. Eight ounces with muffler but it's stronger than a lot of 25s. It will be dynamite in a Wonder.
