RE: CG Question with new Lipo battery

If you end up going with another battery, Helidirect has the megapower 1350 15c for I think $28. It fits the stock hole and canopy.

RE: axe cp thread

RE: axe cp thread

Another silly noob question. Where do you unplug the motor? Is it the two heat shrink lookin connections about half way between the motor and esc?
