Hey Chris,

Maybe (maybe not, I'm having a hard time digging any of this info up anywhere) you can help me with a few questions that have popped into my head in the last 2 hours since my wife pulled one of these seemingly out of nowhere for my b-day present:

Do you know if the esc (3in1) is lipo compatible? or should i just land when i notice the performance begin to sag?

What do you approximate the amp draw at? I hovered it once with the stock pack, then with a 1100mah lipo rated at 15C continuous, and the pack was warm after just 4 minutes of hovering.

Are the servos cheapo's? or are those actually HS-55's with the stickers removed?

Do you know if the receiver and transmitter are negative or positive shift? I'd like to order a new frequency crystal and use my Futaba 9C with it if at all possible. (The heli-max website does mention that it's compatible with Fut. trainer systems.)

I really didn't have time to get much of a feel for it (living room a little crowded with the furniture re-arranged to make room for the xmas tree) so I'll have to wait until the sun comes up tomorrow to know what I really think of it. The frame makes this thing look much more robust and impressive than a blade. Not sure yet, but I think I like this even more than the brushless shogun I had for a while (gear-driven tail, non-ccpm, maintenance nightmare).
