Thanks for the welcome guys
One more thing i forgot to say above, regarding the freedom, and i guess all electrics:
Please buy a good charger!!!! For some reason (maybe the price....) the charger that comes with the freedom isn't all that good.
I was lucky enough to buy an LRP Quadra charger from a friend, and my flights are a lot longer now - and the engine seems to sustain that initial high rpm for a LOT longer!!! Plus the 1100mah battery packs (that ship with the freedom in australia) charge in about 15 - 20 minutes now (i think they took 2.5 hrs with the supplied wall adaptor)

ps. WEB - I'm a big fan of electric wings - i'm just gonna lurk around the forums a bit more till i can get more info - but i'm convinced that wings are the way to go..!!
