Looking back at the original list, and adding Dave Rogers, it looks like we have one flown and 4 ready to fly. I've put a ? next to Chris' name because although we've seen a photo I couldn't be sure if the radio and motor was installed and ready to fly. How are the others coming along?

Another one flown. I programmed a switch to kill the motor and launched motor off...then flicked the switch for full power. Very easy and no drama. I just did circuits and trimming. The occasional burst of full power really made it shift...much nicer to fly than the twinjet which acted as the testbed for the motor/controller/battery. Taking Kevin's advice, I increased the throws from 5mm to 8/9mm. At full power this made rolls ridiculously quick...so I'll reduce the throw down to 5mm each way for the next flight.
All-in-all, very happy with the way it flew and looking forward to getting a few airborne at the same time.
