It's the Curse of the appropriate Power system! bphobbies - is on back order for the LPS-B2C-CS RadicalRC - is out of stock on the replacement motors (took my paypal money anyway) Aeromicro - I'm not really interested in trying out motors from Aeromicro anymore. Anyone have another vendor or can any one suggest another light power system?

Howabout www.balsapr.com I think that's where I got mine. It's a good place. Nice spreadsheet!

Haha! Bphobbies owns more than one domain I take ;) They are out of stock - this is so depressing .... going to have to go DD brushless Feiago? and say to hell with GWS.

Yeah, they changed their name a few years back. I just have the old link. Hmmm. What kind of Feiago? IPS sized?

This is what I was thinking... Feigao - 12mm Brushless Motor LPS (30 Turn) #16345 http://stevensaero.com/shop/product.php?productid=16345&cat=0&page=2

| Looks good. Quite a bit more expensive than the brushed setup, but it'll be a better setup. |

| When did money become an object? ;)- -
Kidding, your right it is expensive but as frustrated as I am with the brushed motors I'm ready to start writing slightly larger checks.
BTW - I am quite frustrated with one vendor, Radical RC, as they are not honest in their dealings. I have little patience for dishonesty especially when all it netted then was $19 - so sad. |

| I don't have a clue what you're talking about but it's clear that the problem is that the registration numbers are on backward. Duh!! ;-) |

| Hah you made me look! I actually looked twice becuase I wsn;t sure what you were talking about ;) BTW - Radical RC came through and refunded my money - very trusting and responsive. I'll be getting my Feigao from them. Anyone know how to put on Pinion gears? Are they press on? |

| Officially gave up on the LPS idea. Commited myself to a c-20 Outrunner. I did confirm that the LPS I have is the 6:2:1 B2C Cs - did not figure out why the motors kept burning out since it was indeed pproperly matched for the 7060 prop. My only thought now is that the 300HP mah batt overjuiced it...doesn't matter much since I will never go back. |

| PS David, noticed you hanger today - I'm going to take a wild shot in the dark and say that wasn't the first 50 models you've built. My favorite in the bunch is the Guillows Series 800 - Douglas DC-3 - something about the plane and that color scheme...
Oh and the fact that its perfect helps too.

| does anyone even us fuels type moter forthere plane anymore? |
| VP46 | 18-May-08 14:28 |
| Fuel type motor IE an "engine" is not allowed at every field - so for me you would have to drive nearly 40 mins to fly as opposed to the 10 I drive now. |
