Hello.
I have just ordered a Phoenix 35 esc and a Align 430XL motor for my MX400 pro.
Most of the parts on the heli is T Rex alu parts (after chrashing some times...). I use mostly Align 325 pro wood blades. I am new to this an i dont fly anny 3D yet :-)

On the original motor i have 14T main gear, but i also have 10T, 11T, 12T and 13T. Would 12T give me to much head speed for the wood blades with this new motor? Which main gear would you recomend using?

Sorry for my bad English, i am Norwegian......

I thought Id reply here too. A 10t 3.17 bore will be best fit. will give about 3000 hs.

Thank you for the reply raven, i will try the 11T main gear as soon as the new motor and esc arrives.
With the stock motor and 14T it runs ok with 2100mah batteries, if i try a 1700mah the tail and heli starts to shake a little. Could this be because the smaler battery gives a little less head speed?

Sorry for the double post.......
