RE: KingCat Brushless Foamie!

Okay, so I jumped on the bandwagon too. I went to BVM's website, and clicked on the Bobcat.
Then onto color schemes. If you enlarge the 3 view on your browser, you can print it poster style 4X4...

RE: 10 Cells on astro 020 question

Hey Matt, You kind lost me there. I understand the gating principle used, as lightboards dimmers work the same way. But it would seem that full throttle, would be full throttle. I'm not disputing...
