Hi Paul,

I'm curious what your reason was for having the bottom-side brake open forward as apposed to from the rear? The way you have it set up, does it cause a pitch down early in the brake travel, then start to level out again as the drag catches up on the top side of the fuse? I really like the innovative approach you took using the heli blades, but mine will probably open from the rear. (there's a steady source of 'used' blades at my club )

I've also got one of these kits on the way, to be powered by a PST. I think I'll use 5645MG's on the elevons, HS125MG's in the rudders, and HS645MG's for the upper/lower air brakes.

The 5945's on my hotspot seemed to do the trick just fine. I assume the stingray doesn't need quite the same torque output being a smaller jet with lower top end speed @~13lb, so I'll probably error to the cheaper option.

Can't wait to see that UPS truck and get started! Hopefully Monday... Its good to see there are so many Stingray people here to share ideas with.
