RE: Which is the best gyro mixer for my aerohawk

RE: Is there a stand-alone main/tail mixer board on the market?

RE: Aerohawk tail: stock or DD

Sounds good. How long do the DD motors last? which high torque motor are you using?. Does it need a high freq. ESC?. (Just changing my tail ESC to a ICS-100).
