    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Yeah the big round cowl thing was new to me when I maidened my PAU Sukhoi. Couldn't believe how quick it slowed down. I have been told it won't be as bad if I where to install like the mock radial in it as not as much air can get into the cowl to slow it down.

    3D MOJO 65 w/20cc Build

    Just put the batt in a plastic bag for now and rubber band it in place. You may find it needs to move back to the wing. If you find its spot on though then you can make the proper shield for it.

    Yeah I'm not sure if the 65 is the same way or not. Maybe @caf2461 can check to see where his is balancing to give you a better idea. I have seen his fly and it looks good in the air.
