RE: Leopard Red Series vs. Turnigy XK Series (comparison)

RE: Leopard Red Series vs. Turnigy XK Series (comparison)

As mentioned you are comparing a 4 pole Leopard to a 2 pole Turnigy. For sure you will see a difference in efficiency. The test is rather useless IMHO. Kinda like comparing 2 identical cars with one...

RE: HK Aparition Hull - First time hull build

The sharp bend you have in the brass tube will not work for long before the drive cable binds up/breaks. You can't have a kink like you have shown. A gradual curve over a long distance is what you...

You are correct, a construction helmet is very strong however a Spartan hull is no more than .5 mm thick at best which makes it quite weak. Lets see, a sandwich baggie is also made from plastic but...
