Jeti 30A Advance Plus ESC was originally mounted on floor of fuselage and covered by a piece of light weight porrus foam. Heavier amp draw of E-Flite 480 outrunner B/L motor caused overheating of the ESC. Relocating ESC slightly to allow air on both sides of the device, plus forcing more air into the fuselage via the air scoop solved the problem. Scoop is made from a plastic spoon, cut in half and epoxied to bottom of fuselage.

Motor is an E-flite 480 outrunner, which is more motor than needed for this size model. ROG's are easy, very strong climbouts, at 80+ degrees. Power is via a 3S1P TP 2100 LiPo pack, ESC is a Jeti 30A Advance. A good flyer in strong winds.

This is Ferias #2 (my nomenclature). Ferias #1, after some 165 flights, got sliced up rather badly in a major mid-air collision at an electric fly-in.
