Decision made. ;)

Electric it will be. Have got a choice of Lipos already, 5 & 6 cell packs. Spare 100 amp ESC (I know it is overkill) and a 5045 660kv motor. So I have all the bits except servos (HS-5495HV) but they are due here Wednesday/Thursday. Retracts probably mid-week too.

Remember to use a regulator for the retracts.

Of course! Got loads of UBECS but they are a bit overkill I think - 15amp. I don't think I have a 5 amp one. Have to have another rumage... ;)

:) A chat with Mike today sealed it. Thanks Mike.

Got more choice of power requirements. 5 cell = sport, change prop and up to 6 cell = fast :whistle:

Also that keeps my glow powered stuff down to still three oilers. Anyway I thought I was moving into gas and electric for economy :lol:

Don't blame me. My model was upside-down and you were giving it a good looking over and then asked me a few questions. I must admit that until I saw you this afternoon I had assumed you had already decided to go glow when you said "Topic moved to another category - Gas n Glow ;)"
