Hello T-45 team! I just ordered my T-45 ARF+ and I am thinking of putting in the FW 12B 8S power system in (inrunner with metal shroud). Will the thrust to weight ration work well? Has anyone tried this? Sorry but this thread is so long that I can't find what I am looking for. Any suggestions from current fliers are welcome!
Aros - our most helpful support man! Any thoughts?

So regarding my issue with bulging spots on top of wing straight from factory. I got email back from motion and here it is.
They have looked through a few of the planes and they all have that slight distortion. I am sending you a picture. Best guess is it is done during manufacturing since they all have it. Sorry.
So if your looking to buy this plane be warned your going to have the bulges above main gear until you decide to fix it. Utter failure from freewing.

With wheels down. This is the third T-45 I've had. Each of the other two balanced at 190mm with wheels down and the same size battery. I balanced the first one at 190mm. wrecked it, replaced it, rebalanced the second one with no problem. Had a second crash, totaled it! So, I'm back to the beginning but after the assembly this one has me scratching my head.

The T-45 is a heavy airplane for its size and adding weight is not preferred. But I solved the balance problem by finally adding 3/4 ounce to the most aft point on the fuse with the battery positioned as far back as is possible (3 1/2" aft of the mount that holds the gear door servo). I can only figure that during the molding process the distribution of foam is not as it was with my two earlier versions. The first two T-45's balanced with the battery 2" aft of the foam block without any need for additional weight.
Thanks for trying to help.

Fellow EDF Pilots,
On Dec. 22nd I posted a problem with balancing my new Freewing T-45. I mistakenly stated a balance point of 190mm aft of the leading edge of the wing. I had just balanced my Freewing F-4 (which is at 190mm) and I got the measurement cross-mixed working on both airplanes at the same time! The T-45 did balance at the correct location (65mm aft of the upper air intakes) but, unlike the first two planes that I owned, it required 3/4 ounces of additional weight at its most aft end to do so. So, to those of you who read and tried to help, I thank.
Happy New Year to all fellow pilots and fly safe and fly often!
