Default got smoke ?

yes, the belt problems have been solved. Jetcat uses new belts from a diferent manufacturer now. The old belts were delaminating due to the centifigual forces at 90K + rpm.

the HP5 also uses a new bearing block, the old set up was hard to set tension on while keeping everything square.

I have put my Jetcopter through some pretty rough manouvers, whiping at around, and having put a lot of stress on the sustem ... so far, no issues whatsoever on the new set up. I also have a 2nd HP5 waiting to go in a scale heli ... I have no more worries about Jetcat anymore ..
