I thought about the servo extensions, but did not change them out. I'm running a Satio 180 on the plane. The extensions could be vibrating around in the wing in flight I guess. I usually make my own extensions, but in this plane, I bought some. I believe I will change them out.
As far as the battery goes, it's a new NiMH 1650 MA. I,m not losing any of the rest of the plane, and it's not going into fail safe. Also, it has a brand new heavy duty JR switch on it.
