          Finally made some time to test and making some changes (I've been working daylight to dark). It hovers rock solid with the 1600kv at 65% throttle. I am trying to nail down a head speed of approx. 1200rpm. I'm gonna be running 4s 5000mah and am waiting on my 1200kv motor shaft to be turned down to 5mm so that I can run a 11 tooth helical pinion.
