Glad the 160mm CG worked out for you. That is where I have mine set up also. I use a Swiwin 140n for power and it flies great.
Thanks,

Getting ready to maiden.

30 pounds ZFW on the button.

Speed board geometry is goofy, won't always pop out. Thats the only thing I've found so far. Should be flying this weekend unless it gets as windy as they indicate it might with a storm off shore.

I ended up going with a Swiwin 140. Radio is a Powerbox Core with 2x 26D receivers, a Pioneer and iSat gyro and VSpeak for the turbine telemetry and an AG63 braking gyro.

Anyone have the control throws and the proper center position of the elevators?
