RE: Modified Aerohawk is very stable

DCRC,

I personally would be conservative here, but have not experimented with an 11T w/ a stock motor. My experience with "stock" motors is that they don't last very long in any event. The...

Hi Russ,

DC motors are designed to turn in a certain direction. The J250 is set up for the wrong direction for our birds. Round can motors can be "retimed" to turn in the other direction, but...
