Yeah; I just picked up a 450V1 frame for spare arms in my last order from RCTimer that I suspect is ALSO 100% NEEWER product as well... And I think your 1200 would look a lot better with a motor & 1045 prop off one of your quads on it.

Shhh! I'm tryin' ta sleep ova heah!

Love the sound of that Saito... do you plan to change the carb & convert to gasoline, or were you building for the 15-20% power increase? I've been looking for a slightly smaller Saito gasoline engine for my .40 size Hangar 9 Pawnee, but the correct "slightly oversize" FG-17 has evidently been discontinued for almost two years, and still no word on what they plan to replace it with. I want to turn at least a 15x6 prop to keep it flying low & slow for these old eyes, and I'm sick and tired of the mess of glow fuel.

I'm tempted to get into something 1/5-1/4 scale once I get a little better skillz; I really like the idea of running converted 26cc WeedEater engines. They burn SO much cleaner...
