because the tensor is made for direct drive and any motor with direct drive can be used with the viriable pitch prop

Wait until you try Q-40 racing, dynamic soaring, or jets- 200+is easy on most.

The 4th dimension is the illusion that time stands still when a VPP plane stands on its nose just above ground.

Watch closely, because the next wave of 4D foamies is coming that will provide better flight backwards. It will be like you are watching a video in reverse...hence the 4th dimension of manipulating time.

OK. I guess I can let that one slide in...from the marketing standpoint.

I'm just trying to figure out if vpp will make it to something more then foamies. Will it ever make it to 30 and 40%ers? I think it will make this hobby go straight to the youth if we got 40%ers doing it.

crap[X(] "i am building her as light as possible capitan"
using hs-55 servos( 3 )and a outrunner the 370 1080kv outrunner (hollow shaft) is for indoor lightweight w/10x4.7 prop, 900mah 3-cell

and the 400 outrunner 920kv is the heavier setup with the 11x4.7 prop,
1200mah 3-cell

can i use the lightweight (1st setup listed above)for VPP or do i need to get the yak 55?

if i was you i would order the lightest airplane possable.
id keep the queque yak for smoth 3d and get a yak 55 from hobby lobby.
i know billy h e l l (jimey t gram) from hobby lobby personialy and he says 8-9oz is the best but can handle up to 10oz and still not over stress the blades.
