TX can't recall I have had it for a long time.

FBL Rotors sells a very similar mat. I have one and really like it.

I knew of that one thanks but I think the big "H" in the middle looks cool

Makes it look like: "My new project has landed"

+1 its great!

I jus finish the build, very happy. Only thing missing is setting up the electronics and madden.
On question, in my goblin 570 and 700 I use AS150/XT150 as connector and on a Lynx 300 I use XT60.
I was thinking of EC5 or AS150/XT150..
What are you using???
Wil upload letter the rest of the pics.

Setup. (will post more pictures when the FBL is all setup)

I'm still waiting for mine to ship... you don't know how impatient this thread has made me

[aziz76]

How long have you been waiting Tuson? And where did you order from? I will be ordering mine in about a month

I ordered mine from Peak and have been waiting about 3 weeks for it to ship. I've been in contact with Chuck and he said that they were just wrapping up the latest batch of kits in Germany last week and that they ought to be shipping any time now.

Note that I didn't expect it to ship immediately and I knew I was pre-ordering a kit that hadn't been manufactured yet so the time it's taken isn't Peak's fault at all. If you do want yours quickly I'd suggest jumping on it before you have to wait on the next batch. Either way it's not making the wait much easier for me

I will be ordering from Germany most likely since I live in the Middle East. Previously I ordered my 700 from Germany too. I would have ordered three months ago if I could, just hasn't been possible for me.

Ok, Everything done and finishing the setup couple of quick questions...
anybody with the 550 can share how..
1º - were the FBL goes its a bit messy the wires and don't like how i did it, will like some ideas...
2º - im using BD3sx are you using 1 or 2 SATS... Spektrum, and were are you placing them.
3º - im using 12.5º Pitch and 10º ele/ale, is this good not a smack 3D.
4º - what HS should i be looking for... N_2000 - idle1_2200 - idle2_2400.
5º - Anybody using Bavarian can share there setup with me since my Tail travel seems to low on the left is 55 and to the right 68 im on the middle hole of the servo arm, for what i understand they should ne at ~80 both... how can i achieve this.
