<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt">Hello again to all subscribers of this thread. I have been away for a while and life and obligations (as we all know) sometimes gets in the way but my buddies and I are back on the task of the Aeroworks P51.</div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt">We have every expectation of flying her this weekend. I will have plenty of video to post as soon as we get back.</div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt">Rocco was very kind to get us the upgrades for the retract system and Hitec provided the servos needed to safely fly this monster. We are testing the pitch settings for the 4 blade and the DA 85.</div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt">We think it will be around 8.5 degrees of pitch, 7200 RPM, and 28 lbs of thrust. I will make sure we have a post no later than next Monday. (Hopefully sooner)</div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt">See you guys in a few days</div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt">Fred</div>
