I have had good luck with an OS105 running a Dubro 14oz tank and getting 7+ minutes of flight time. Very little load on the OS105 with this size of heli and it is "Very" powerful as you would expect..

Since I can't create a new thread, I'll post on this one:
How do I recreate the nose down stance after this upgrade? As you may (or may not) know, the racked stance on the ground is done in the Goblin 570's frame - not the landing gear struts. There is no "front" or "back" strut - they are both the same. Since the nitro conversion kit uses the bottom plate to mount the engine, the side-frames are designed such that the bottom plate is "true" / "square" to the top-deck. And, that eliminates the nose-down rack when resting on the landing gear. "Who cares?" right? Well, in my case, the tail squats down as the rear strut flexes as the weight settles - and the tailrotor blades dig into the dirt. I've changed from the old style CF skids to the "Sport" style skid-pipes and because the struts are the same type of plastic, it is still a problem. If I wrap a Velcro battery strap around the two skid-pipes behind the rear skid, I can cinch the strap tight and draw the skid-pipes closer. That will raise the tail about 1" and they don't flex under the helis weight. If this was a Trex 700N, I would just add a 2nd set of rear skids. Any suggestions?
