I'll arrive as close as possible to Dawn on Friday with my 1/3 scale Pup, paintball gun fully charged!

Really looking forward to seeing the dawn patrol gang and reconnecting. Work has been consuming me and I need a break! Can't think of too many better ways to spend a weekend than this. Art, that's a cool story about your D7, can't wait to see it!

Greg,
We have a DA170 with about 3-1 reduction drive. I hope it holds together too!
Should yield over 100 lbs of thrust and all up weight should be around 85 lbs.
