Check Horizon for 3 different sizes. Yeah I agree with an adapter but will probably just refit the machine with a deans.
It's a good looking mount, the only issue I see it that since this will be attached directly under the quad, you will have to find an alternate place to mount the battery pack, and try to keep it as centered as possible to ensure proper CG, if not I am pretty sure the gyro will have to work overtime to keep the unit stable.

But for $119.00 not bad at all, Need to find a unit that also has tilt function, I can see this being more helpful for someone with limited experience like me, since my subject will
always be infront of the nose anyways.

Speaking of that per the manual users will have two options on choosing the "nose position" the standard set up I guess is with the nose being being between motor # 1 & 4, see page 9 of the manual.

The other nose option is to be inline with motor # 1, see page 16

How are you guys gonna set yours up? I have to wait till I get the unit in my hands

Here is a link to the online manual: http://www.flying-hobby.com/shop/dow...330Xmanual.pdf
