            Are you doing KV and cell calculations in you sleep? Then yes, you are certified FE.

            ....or maybe that's certifiable FE!!!

                      Well guys...I finally got to run her today and let me tell you...the thing is BALLISTIC!!! I must have gotten lucky right off the bat with the strut setting because it stuck very good in the corners and was riding flat out in the straights!

                      I brought it in after about 10 or so laps and the temps read 145 deg. on the lipos and 138 deg. on the motor. I'm guessing that is pretty warm...? I'm just running the plastic y531 prop on it so far (or, I mean I was until the end of my run, when the prop nut and prop let go right out in front of me...DOH! Forgot to locktight the nut and tighten it down more before the run...oh well, I have more of each...)

                      This thing is a blast!!!

                          Thanks Diego!! Thanks to you guys and the threads I have followed, I had an easy day with her!

                          Now about the temps I listed...do you think those are normal readings? (sorry no temps taken on the ESC) Just hope the motor will not fry too soon. I might have to bring it in a little earlier than I did today and let it cool for a while. Any thoughts?

                            Mine gets pretty darn hot too, always has, and mine is water cooled. (Steve Eliass' prototype) I have to say it's normal, because she keeps going and going...

                              Thanks for the confidence Diego! I will be running her again in the morning (with another prop...like the one I lost to the pond...LOL!!!) Also will try a x632 S/B prop later on...this one is not detounged.........yet!

                                Your temps may decrease if you try an X432.
