Hi Dave!

If your getting 10 minutes on 2000 MaHrs, you're doing very well!! I'm diong 10 to 11 miutes with 2600's that actually charge up to 2900 MaHrs!

I am expecting to build another Corona in the Fall, and I will be interested in your belt drive setup. I will also be hoping to go with LiPoly's. I'm kind of watching the pricing on the LiPo's AND the subsequent availability of a reliable charger for the LiPo's, and hopefully the NiMh's, NiCd's also. I have a hot s::t charger now, but it won't do LiPo's ... AAarrrggghhhh!!!!

The electric power advancements over the past 2 or 3 years have certainly been amazing, and have changed the face of R/C modeling forever. I wonder what'll be going on in 10 years ... scary?

Hoverup, who has been very quiet the last month or so (maybe on vacation) said the carbon fiber boom & ball bearings was one of the best mods he did to his Corona. If I remember correctly, it eliminated some noise and vibration that everyone seems to comlpain about, and can't really put their finger on the source!

Well, gotta run to the market and get some Windex and paper towels ................................
.................................................
gotta get some windows done (kidding)

Keep up the good work, and Happy Choptering.
