Joe, for your first large electric I really suggest you follow what others have done as far as components. Bolt on a known combo that others have had success with and go. Experimenting can be saved to later after you get comfortable with everything. I see it very often were guys buy components that nobody has tested together before and end up spending a lot more time and money experimenting with props and controller settings etc than the guy that just copies a known set up that is running correctly. There is plenty of time for experimenting later, but I really would not stray on your first project.

Hope to see your Wind 110 at a D1 contest next year - probably Oasis in the Spring.

Chris
