Status: offline 		I'm working with Lucien at innov8tivedesigns in regards to getting the best Scorpion motor for it I can. I want power but not so much I have to tame it down, power is nothing without control.

I need blades for it too. The stock blades are the weak point.

If anyone knows where to get carbon blades for it let me know. Thanks.

the spektrum servos I got for it are sloppy brand new, as noted by gpach, i'm taking them back and getting something else, they looked to be ideal but the slop is unacceptable.

Status: offline 		lotta, picked up servos yesterday and checked the spektrums and noted the slop was the same as the ones in my F40. I ended up with HS50's. They say 6.1 grams on the box but they are LYING. My scale suggests they are over 7 but less than 8 (only 1 gram resolution).

I think my AUW will come in around 385. May shave a bit if I can get some lighter batteries. Would like to get it down to 340-350 but would have to get some carbon on it as well as a grinder on that thick upper al plate.

Status: offline 		This is a sweet micro but man is it heavy for its size. I think that's the real problem here when everyone is talking about how it lacks power with its stock motor. It looks like it needs one hell of a motor to fly around with that weight

Status: offline 		On the other hand my FP 300 class is light and it gets blown around easily. Of course it only needs a 2S and this one a 3S so easily with the right motor this can be a nice riding ship.

I would want wind to blow me around when inverted that wouldn't be fun.

I also want to try the ARC80 motor in it but my motor is making a grinding noise. Going to send it back and try to get it warrantied. Man I never even flew this motor was going to throw it in the 300 FP today because it is raining. My wife said I can fly in the living room if I don't hit the TV or the cat. lol

Wanted to put a Scorpion in it but they don't have anything that fits the parameters of whats required.

Putting a Wasp3 in it.
