Picard look on the prop hub up front. IT it has 2 magnets then u need to run a straight lithium 2 cell (7.4v). Its the 2nd gen. Mine has the Gx2 module. They r a great running engine and mine starts on the first flip after i prime it. I close the choke with a servo and prime it with 3 or 4 turns of the prop turn on the ignition and flip it one time and its running.. Great gas mileage too by the way . IF i can help just holler.

Ya mean I should push this stuff to the side to make room for the main ingredient?!?!?! Missing accessories needed to complete <Spinner and Prop(s)> will arrive tomorrow, this should truly be a "Quick Build"!!!

I think you can tell by looking at the ignition box the first generation has a square alluminum box and generation 2 has a better solid hard plastic box. I have both but have yet too fire up my generation 2. As for a regulator I never had to use any thing like that but I have never used lypos either. I did have a probem with my engine in getting it to prime when it was new. You have to dump a little fuel in the carb to get the diaphram wet then it draws fuel like a champ. As for the low rpms??? I think I read something some where that if you battery is low the engine will slow as a safe check. I hope its that simple. Make sure you keep (all) your ignition stuff as far away from you rx as possible to avoid rf noise. Just a heads up so you don't have to move every thing later as did I on one of my planes.

Hi Ya Mark - That's GREAT News Guess I'll either have to get busy and finish the combat P-51's in the next couple of days or box them up and make some room for the new bird in the hangar !!
Hope everybody keeps good notes and has their digital cameras charged up and ready to post some pictures of the different set ups. It sounds like enough of us are going to be trying the Evo 26GT to swap notes as well.
If you all hear a big YeeHaaaa coming out of the NE corner of Wyoming you'll know I got my plane that day

YYEEEEEEEHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
The wife just called and asked just how many boxes I was expecting today - FedEx showed up first with my Fromeco LiOn Battery, and right behind him the Big Brown Truck showed up with one BIG box. Now I've got to make an excuse here at work to go home early
So am I the first one?? That's pretty cool !!!

The Big Brown Truck doesn't usually show up here till later in the afternoon/early evening. I think we are like the last area on our drivers route to deliver to. Now that I know that you've received yours, I'm gonna park my butt at home tonight and keep an eye peeled for the BBT to arrive here...

Yeah, yeah, yeah, rub it in!!!
I just talked to Aeroworks today and mine should be shipping out this afternoon. I ordered last week and was sure hoping to have it in hand by the long weekend, so my fingers are crossed that it can make Denver to Wichita overnight without having to go through the UPS hub in KC first. I've received stuff from Denver next day before but it's not consistent.

Well all, the box is open and it was all in one piece It was well packaged as you would guess. I even happier with it then I thought I was going to be, GREAT LOOKING PLANE
As you can see, they fit it all into one box. My build table is a little over 4' x 8' to give you an idea. All of the hardware looks first rate as promised and advertised
I'll be posting a few more pictures as I get into the assembly part of it. I'm afraid I'll be away this weekend for 3 days as most of you will, but then come back for 3 days at work and leave for a 4 day weekend, but at least part of this traveling will involve flying
EDIT - Having problems uploading pictures for some reason so bare with me............... I'll upload a few more tomorrow
