I can’t tell you how to make a shortcut, but I can add to this thread. I am just about finished with my 72” span Giles 202, I have modified it to the single seat version and converted it to electric. It has an XPWR 30cc motor, castle 80 esc and a Castle 20 bec. The finished all up weight less batteries is 9 lbs. With a little luck I will maiden it next weekend I hope...

Wow, that is a sharp airplane you have. Make sure it is not tail heavy, they really are hard to handle. I did get a short-cut made. So I will be on RCU more now. Thanks for the reply. Captain

I have a Saber about like this one.
