A Free motor and ESC.! thats a pretty good deal Id say. So what were your flight times like. I managed to get 8 and 9 min flights! The battery was really warm but not melting hot. My first light was 6min and it took 1450mah to charge. That was with the 2200 lipo and the A123 had a failure at about 6min when one cell crapped out. Im going to try and gouge more of the back wall out.In fact I had concidered cut it right into the intake steam so as to pull the hot air out of the Battery compartment. Going to need an intake hole though or the suction could colapse the canopy. I cant complain of how it handled but I think I can do better. Mind you I was flying in 30klm+ winds. Hey Joe! I now know what its like to fly backwards in a high Alpha now.lol I have some video now but that could take a while for me to upload it.

This plane is just WAY to fun!!!!
