So what sort of 130C packs are you getting to generate this nauseating power?

Hmmmm? mmmmmmm mmma mmmee hmmmm!

Evidently, one would burn a set of packs for a two minute speed trial. Kinda like they do in the NHRA. Burn up an engine running 90% nitromentane (8,000 horsepower) for 4 seconds. Did 330 mph, for 4 seconds! Yeeee Haaaaaw!

Perhaps it won't really be all that bad. I just want the Compass motor, and for it to outperform the HKIII 4035-560 by 20% or so. I'll be happy enough!

What if it's only 19.99% better?

LMAO!!!! I did! Damn! That will NOT happen again. I feel a bout of nauseating humility coming on...

dunkonu23 · 02-23-2012, 01:07 PM

I'd go for it, Dom.

Then again, with my flying, it wouldn't really matter. I'd never know the difference!

I WANT MY COMPASS MOTOR AND I WANT IT NOW!!

Its all i need to finish my build....and i bet if i place a order for the scorpion/Pyro motor then the dam compass one will be out a week later lol that sh!t always happens to me...

DominicD · 02-23-2012, 03:15 PM

LOL it's that always the case. When I bought my 450se V1 the V2 came out a week later.

buzzsaw 46 · 02-23-2012, 03:36 PM

I have been half waiting half saving for a 7HV since Nov. Taco order up a motor and push the release of the motor up for those of us waiting

So far I have my servos(torq) and ESC(HW120), still need a V-bar and the kit with motor. I have been tempted to put a bid in on a 700MX 510 but have resisted the urge.

DominicD · 02-23-2012, 03:43 PM

I've got my yge120 and some heavy duty velcro so far.... just a few more minor items needed.

Rob43 · 02-23-2012, 05:33 PM

This is pretty funny...talk about some dudes prime for the release...we got everything from Heavy Duty Velcro, YGE speedos, Torq servos, reports of impending insanity, nausea, and a whole damn squadron of 7HV's ready to take on the world as soon as that friggin' motor hits the streets. Whoa!

Bring it!

I'll take one.

As a first batcher, I have dibs on being at or near the front of the line....

buzzsaw 46 · 02-23-2012, 08:29 PM

No fair man you are already flying yours, get to the back of the line

JK I know you've been waiting a long time for yours.

Rob43 · 02-23-2012, 08:37 PM

Buzz, dude, it's the crown jewel I seekest....

buzzsaw 46 · 02-23-2012, 08:43 PM

Hey Rob, have you flown the Compass 700 blades yet? Just wondering if I should get a bare airframe or include the blades.

+1 especially that they already have our money.

I'm glad I got myself a Hacker in the meanwhile though. It's been a loooong wait already.

No, sir. I am thinking I'd like to get a set this spring. I think several of the team have, though. Maybe they will chime in. I hear they are on par with the other blades, but of course, about $20-$30 less expensive. And they make the cool Compass "halo" when flying them.

Just what I'd expect from a rodent. Perhaps one that's a PhD EE, but a rodent, nonetheless. Hahahahah!
