I too have the WH Slick 540. It flies very well. But just a heads up about the Power HD servos that come with the power pack. I have 3 that stripped out already & in the process of replacing them all with better quality servo's. These servo's are cheap & i'am not going to take a chance of crashing my plane with them... I'am not flying with 3D throws either. Running 2 elevator servo's & both of them have stripped the gears out. Also had 1 aileron servo that stripped out as well. I think the servo's are of cheap quality. Tom maybe you need to find some better servo's that come with the power pack. The plane fly's great..
That's the first report of any problems with the servos. They aren't really cheap servos, but they are small and small servos with nylon gears are never really what one would describe as "rugged". Still, I haven't broken any gears and nobody else has reported such a problem.

If it does happen with any frequency I will certainly take some action.
