Default RE: Air Hogs Aero Ace!

Tim, actually I'm not sure how the 5th channel is activated with the stock TX, but that little green dot seems
to at least tell people whether their RX will work with the mod or not.

As for mods sticking their nose where its never been needed before, all I can say is we've gone much further
off topic in this thread before, and after a thread of 7,000 posts, all for one little 2 channel toy plane, its nearly
impossible to stay 100% on topic. But I digress!

Indeed, Garrett! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcfQgmt3ffQ

I've stripped down and rebuilt a BA 2.5g servo to make a lightweight rudder servo for this mod, should be able to
get it to around 1.7g only, but we'll see. I'm also redrawing a set of plans for the Mini Infineon, it was a great
little 3D flyer with my bigger gear, so I thought I'd try a true micro sized version with the Vapor RX and 4th
channel for rudder. Might not be fully 3D-able with the stock brushed gearbox, but it should be close.
