No They don't! But I take it out of the box once in a while and run around the shop with it over my head. LOL

I need to get serious. Should only take me 4 nights once I get into it!

This plane is still my fav. Even High alpha knife edge requires very little skill. Hurry up and get yours done Andy and John. These are a hoot!

I have the wings and elevators and rudder done. Last of my components (proflow and jeti) came late last werk. I can't get to the fuse work until i have some time off over Xmas. My target is to be ready for jan 1. But I did see your new avitar. Very jealous! Can't wait until I can change my to a 330 hover too!!!
I think Mario will be ready before me and Andy.

If you'd still like to shed the reciever packs Western Robotics makes the Hercules line of BEC's I've got two in my Edge. Mine are good for 15 amps with up to 14S input and adjustable voltage output. They were happy to provide them with deans for connecting to my smart-fly and told me running them in parallel is no problem as long as you use a battery isolater like a smart fly or batt-share.

Since I bought they've changed the line-up some and I see they've got a G2 version out now that has it's own power-bus and switch. 36 grams.

It turned out I would have had to jam the batteries right against the firewall with out receiver batteries. This ended up being the best setup I could come up with anyway

No, the weather was too nice yesterday (0 deg C) to pass on a day of flying

I have a 2230 on rudder for this bird and it is the easiest bird I ever hovered. No blowback that I notice. I held about 3/4 rudder on this high alpha pass.
