Hey all..
I need to make some changes on my nooner...
First it's the engine.. I need to re-align the motor... too much nose-up... and to the right...
Second it's the aileron... I used the solution with one servo at center wing... not good... too much vibration.. (a little scary..)
Just waiting for my servos...

How about yours?

I'm using a 2800 kv from hobby king.
The propeller is 4.75 x 4.75.
In full power I'm getting around 21 amps.
So I'm reducing the throttle to 90%...

I'm now ready to fly again. I Did all the modifications I said before.

Hey guys,

I have a Hacker Fun 400 motor in mine that drew 30A on a 4.75x4.75.  I mounted a 4.1x4.1 for the test flight but I didn't get a chance to see how that works as my ailerons were reversed :-)  My plane is under repair now.  I'll try to have it ready for the weekend.

Ed is using something like a 4.5x4.1

Starting the build today and over my camping weekend.  Sorry you need to do the first race without me.
