I think if you look into the Canadian pattern rules you will find that in all classes except FAI you can weigh your electric plane without batteries, so yes you have to be 11lbs but without batteries.

RE: Snap Roll
That's great news, I see what you mean put the mix on a three way switch and use the momentary to activate it, that way you can change the snap direction with the flick of a switch. I still can't believe they did not put a snap roll program in that radio all the other high end MFG's have it but your way will work, thanks for the heads up I can now purchase this radio knowing it will do what I want it to do.

RE: Snap Roll
Ok so I understand how you are doing it,I also agree with Brian putting a snap on a non momentary switch is a very bad Idea, on the 10T could you assign one of the momentary switches on the sticks?

DX10T
I have a question about the new DX10T, as I'm thinking of buying this radio. I have looked in the on line manual but can't see a snap roll function does anyone know of a way to program this function?

RE: Scorpion F3A Motor?
It is the sentilon 100 amp I have a couple of them and they work flawlessly, I also want to add that this motor runs very cool after a ten minute flight you can put your hand on it.

RE: Gaudius
Hi I have a manual for the Gaudius however it is different than the kit, so on the ailerons you will have to install the servo first, then enlarge the slots for the servo arm, now you will have a reference of where to put the aileron horn. It just glues on inside of the rear wing spar. Be aware that the aileron servos go in backwards by that I mean that you will be looking at the bottom of the servo not the top as one would think, the factory installed slots will have to be made larger also as they seem just to be a reference. Hope this helps.

RE: What motor/battery for Conquest 7?
I have a similar set up, I use a scorpion 4020-10 on 6S it swings a 12x6 in the 13000 range if you want to use a little bigger prop use a 4020-12 on 6S and use a 13x7 this set up will get you about 1400 watts and if your in the 7 pound range thats 200 watts per pound and that is straight up out of sight performance I also get 10 min flights with a little throttle control. Just my .02

RE: Scorpion F3A Motor?
Yep I'm using one It's great 2700 watts on 10S 20x13 prop can't remember the amps but I think it was in the area of 70 amps a few of my friends are also using them with good results and the guys at inov8tive are great to deal with.

RE: Gaudius
I too have build a Abbra and I'm now working on the Gaudius I find it hard to believe that they would make it that way but I guess thats the way it is, what servos did you use? The servo openings for the Abbra fit JR 9411 but the Gaudius seems to take a larger servo.

RE: Gaudius
I have a question for you guys that have built a Gaudius, how is the servo put into the wing, by that I mean when you look inside the wing do you see the bottom of the servo or the top of the servo?
