    Aerobeez 30cc 71" Extra 330SC

    Not even close, sorry. You'll need some that are about 80mm long or so. Here is how to measure: Mount your cowl with tape into the position you want it. Use a tape measure to get the distance from the firewall to about 2mm in front of the cowl. Subtract the length of the motor from the...

    Redwing RC 76" MXS-R

    I'm not Snowdog but his is the one this thread is about. The initial flights and review were done here in Texas, and then the plane forwarded on to Snowdog for further flying and review updates.

    Aerobeez 30cc 71" Extra 330SC

    I ran 6s, so I used the internal BEC in the ZTW 155A. The ZTW is ok for regular servos. The HV line (required for above 6s) doesn't have an internal BEC, so you have to use a UBEC. If you don't use a UBEC, you'll need a rx batt.

    Help With Motor Timing and Poor Throttle Response (Gecko 120HV)

    Are you on 12s with the 4330-215? (Going off what you posted in first post) What are your watts/amps? Should be going for about 2700-3000w on 12s. If not on 12s with that wind, that might be part of the problem. Also, just for perspective, the power to weight of the 60" class planes is very...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Sounds like if it can handle the weight of the motrolfly 5335 and 2lbs + of batteries, a DA-50 would fit nicely as well... Just food for thought.

    Help With Motor Timing and Poor Throttle Response (Gecko 120HV)

    Something isn't adding up, they just don't preform poorly. I've had just about every Gecko size made and the response is phenomenal. Watch this video... One is the gecko 150hv and one is the 155. Throttle response is fine IMHO. http://youtu.be/RGIxc0jSC0w Maybe you should go fly it and see...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Done! Thanks for sharing the update with us here. I knew about the motor, but heard a rumor he was running some ZTWs out there also. Maybe in another plane.

    Your Thoughts on An Electric System for a 73" SU-26

    Not as much heart wrenching as idiotic. Total :facepalm: moment. Stuff happens, just gotta get a new one. Glad your experience hasn't soured you on ZTW, I really believe in that brand.
