I have the black, yellow and red model. I'm not putting on those " Razor 3D" decals, that's for sure. I'm putting a .58 on mine and look forward to reading your review. Good luck with the project.

Thanks, Mike.
This would be your model below. Let me know what you find when you build your Razor 3D. These threads are for sharing information.
I would also like to hear your thoughts on the bellcrank system for split elevator control. Mine works great but I thought it was an overly complex design. I'll post some pictures soon.

To keep my Razor 3D light, I used some Hitec components that I bought from Hobby Lobby. My 4 HS-85 "Mighty Micro" metal gear, ball-bearing servos provide 49oz/in torque and weigh only .77oz or 1/2 the weight of a standard size servo.
My Hitec "Electron" 6 channel receiver is a full strength dual conversion design that weighs only .66oz compared to my Futaba R127DF that weighs 1.5oz.
That's a 4oz or 1/4 pound drop in weight! Not a bad start.
