I've also heard a 17x(4W or 6) do great on the 1.25. Oh, and if you get a Hobbico CS-12 for your throttle you'll get a .09second servo speed. That's pretty incredible speed. I do think that the 5945 is too aggressive. I mean, if you want to get rid of it....send it to me and I'll order a CS-12 for you. I'll even send you the MG version .
