Chris, Darticus has one. I want to see one, which means ordering one for me[>:], because I'm considering it as a candidate for a 3 channel switch over.

how would you go about making it 3 channel? its made of the soft epp foam that is fflexible so mounting anything to it might be a lil difficult. if you get one youll have fun with it. it needs landing gear though, having to hand luanch it and recover it kinda sucks. also could you tell me what ROG means, im hearing it alot but have no clue as to what it means. thanks, chris

Chris, I would strip out lots of foam and install a set of 4g servos, a gws 4 ch rx and a small esc, the c-7 comes to mind. Then power it with a 2s250 battery. The question is room. I keep threatening to do this with a mini storm launcher as well.

ROG is Rises Off the Ground, basically a takeoff

thanks for finally answering my question about what rog is. also i was wondering something, if the stock electronics can handle a jump up to a 5 cell battery could they also handle a 6 cell battery? i ask because i have a charge that has a charge range of 6 to 9 cells. id like to use it with the plane without having to buy a charger for the 5 cell. i tried using the controllers charger but it wont charge it. would the 6 cell charge be safe to try on the 5 cell battery for charging? id just try it but i dont wanna kill the cells as i sacraficed the stock battery from my mini t to do the 5 cell upgrade. thanks, chris
