Also moved rudder out of the tail and made it a pull-pull. Im getting around 2200 watts using the logging in the ICE 100 to measure.

Components:
~ Hacker A50-12L
~ 10 amp castle BEC @6.5v
~ RX AR7000
~ Rudder & Ailerons 7775MG & 5245MG on elevator (53 degrees throw)

Now that I have a position where it will fly neutral maybe I can get a 6s setup back in it to cut that 4oz of extra weight. Overall the plane did really descent 3D. I am going to go ahead and grab thecarbon fiber LG. I would also like to find a source for some good nylon bolts for the LG and SFGs etc. So if anyone knows where to get 3 & 4 mm nylon bolts I would love to know. (socket head prefered but not really holding my breath).</span>
