A Blast from the Past

Holy Crap! I thought I was bad going to the dark side , but apparently I was only dipping my toes with the "Ole white Ghost" I see the mega 16/25/2 is still kicking some azz.. that was my favorite horse .. I ran 5s 2600 w/ a 6x3 apc in the white ghost and it was pretty radical.. put that setup in a funjet and it was insane.. clocked at 153 at the field.. stryker was probably 120 level.. had to use some serious throttle management back then cuz the C rating wasn't there.. 4-5 seconds full throttle and you better let off or you'd be making sausages out of lipos .. one thing I noticed is no one is shaving the wingtips.. just taking some thickness out of the tips made a difference .. love the new motor mounts - awesome! you guys are doing a great job with the thread.. keeping it safe while tickling the outer limits of physics is what this thread was all about.. keep up the good work dudes.. and dudettes..

this vid is on 4s 3250mah
