Forgot to add for receiver power I use the UBEC, works great and no batteries to charge. I have about 200 documented flights and it still looks like new. I love electrics!!!

Have two, both are now identical

Actro 32-3 heli version
Hacker 77-O ESC's
TP 8000's (5 sets

, gray labeled)
601
9252's
SAB 690's
MA white paddles
uBEC
Open tail box w/stock blades

Can't say enough how much I like the heli version of the 32-3. I had the airplane versions in both before (plus I tried the Torqman LRK 12 & 14 turn), worked great, but would get hot. This heli version you can fly hard for 10 solid minutes and put you hand around it after you land (not any hotter on the inside either), great power thru-out the entire flight.

Have some of the TG 690's on the way from MA to give those a try, Chris says they work great on the IONs, and would like to get some Tanics to try when they are available (if BoomStrike will sell them to me if I didn't pi$$ him off too much on his thread

)
