Just installed an ATJ 140SV in mine and i must say im very impressed with both the motor, and the fortune.
very quick installation and motor started right up and ran like a champ!
smoke system was tested yesterday and works great too.

i also intalled a Cortex gyro to play with for the first time - and must say im impressed! flying with the gyro in strong 14 knots cross winds yesterday was a breeze, felt like there was no wind at all!

overall im very happy with my Fortune, ATJ and Cortex!

It does not. This one came like the others. Not sure if its still going to get changed.

Starting a new thread on this plane since we now call it the T-1 and not the fortune. http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/rc-j...l#post12230092
