Thanks for the info Patrick!! Yes... gotta love the retracts. Good point about being a foamy. I'm starting to like these foamies. One of the funnest planes I have is the parkzone T-28... super easy and forgiving plane.

- It sounds like 4s batteries might be too much for the 3 blades
- Interesting about the cones. Hopefully we will hear from Bill about his cone experience once he tries them (and good to know about the extra set of gear he has).

Does anyone have any idea how long 4s 2200 mah batteries might last in this plane? It seems like the larger size (3300 on up) get to be really expensive, so I'm hoping the 2200 might work (i.e., 5 min or more).

Thanks again!

Charlie
