    +1... had 51(x4), 59, 70(x3), 89 and 104(x2)... I did fly a local's 126 once (Its freaking BIGGGGGGGGGGGGG) keep thinking about taking the gear from 48 EPP and putting it in a 42 but not I think the motor (Omega 130) and 3S 2200 may be to heavy... anyone try this setup?

I use a ¼” laminated ply that is 2” x 3” drilled with a hole that is a bit larger than the...
