    What size of gas tank did you use with your DLE 35 ? I was thinking about putting a 12oz in mine....is it gonna be enough for 10 min flights ?

    Any of you guys got a DLE 35RA and a canister setup in their 71 Slick ? If so....did you have to go with a push-pull setup with servo in the tail for rudder because of the extra weight ?

    Any of you guys are using a canister on the DLE 35-RA ? I know the stock muffler on those small DLE engine is not really efficient ( my DLE 20 is really loud !!! ) and i wanna try to keep the noise level down a bit. Any recommendation ? Any issues you guys are aware of ?

    Does it make a big difference having servos with really high speed ??? I got servos that run at .15 now.....i guess i will have to adjust my flying ! ;)

    Hey guys ! Gonna start building my 71" Slick soon and i still did not make my final choice of servos on surfaces....i'm looking at the Savox SV-1271SG, 277oz of torque @ .11 What did you guys use? Is speed really important for 3D ? Gonna be using A123 batteries no reg.
