Status: offline 		I finally was able to fly my converted BM V2.2 yesterday aturday. I was concerned about how it was going to fly; but much to my amazement it flew great, very smooth and much too fast. I need to learn throttle managemnt.
The E-Flite Power 160 is really strong motor as the vertical pull was astounding I had to throttle back on the motor as it did not tend to slow down as my old YS did. Really pleased, I'm sorta convinced on E-power.

Great conversion

Glad to hear it's working out for you!

Status: offline 		The plane gained alot of weight. That was due to a mishap I had when a wheel came off and plane went into the grass area ripping out landing gear and cracking the nose section.
It is now at 11lbs 7 ounces all up with batteries (2- 5s, 5,000 mah).
Prop is 20x13, ESC is Phoenix 110HV
