Default RE: AVOID THIS ENGINE AT ALL COST!!!!!

Hey Jr.

If you really want to have some fun with that 40 LA, put it in a Modeltech Magic. Keep it light with mini-servos (I have hitec 225 BB's in mine), Use AAA NiMH battery pack and do not make any modifications that will add any weight. Don't bother with after market landing struts or steerable tail wheels. It should come in at about 3 1/2 pounds and will fly straight up forever and hover all day at part throttle. Trainer only, my foot. [8D][8D]
