David and people

I have been using the Kero option for more than a year now-reflecting on it during a recent visit to JC I have had the same V1 unit in my ARF Bandit since day one November last year (2006) and it has never missed a start. Other people have had a wide range of experiences.
JC say that the V3.0 so far has been perfect, it does use slightly more current, so a good ECU battery and not over extended power (3 wire) cables are needed.
I've been sending out V3 units since late July and so far none have come back.
As many say it is only needed to prime the unit first time if you have no air leaks. My Bandit is fully ducted.

a good Lipo of 2500 mah (flightpower eco series) is just fine.

if you want a powerhouse one could use a 3200.
