Has anyone done a .40 bipe conversion. I am looking to get a bipe around the .40 size and I was wondering if anybody has done one and what they used (motor,speedcontrol, etc...). I've heard the Dave Patrick .40 Ultimate is a good plane. Any suggestions would be great.

How about the Ultimate 40S from [link=http://www.airborne-models.com/html/productdetails.asp?ProductID=84]World Models[/link]?
I'm doing the yellow one.

What motor, esc and lipo's are you going to use? Specs on that plane look similar and the price is better. I just have a thing for bipes. I have an edge 540 and a j3 cub and I just can't get rid of the bipe bug.

To have a great power level and performance, I plan to use the following setup.
