Price of powerjazz

Powerjazz is $345 at esprit, thats the best price ive seen so far.
Only thing for you US guys is that the US dealers dont seem to carry the progcard which is needed for programming.. you need to get that from UK or germany.

Im using it on both my Ion-X and E-Stratus.
Little heavier then the CC110, but it seems totally bullet-proof so far.

Edit: FXAeromodel seems to have the Progcard now.

Just talked to Castle

They Claim that there is nothing in their controller that could cause a motor to smoke?

Hmmm...

&^%$#@!*!!!! sorry man. that bites big time. and i do feel your pain!
i flew my e stratus last weekend, 1915 1.5y on 12s with a SAE controller i got a e multi gov for it but didn't get the tx set up right so just flew it on gov mode on the esc. except for the kick on spool up it was fine. but looks like i'll be getting a powerjazz also.

hey , a few things about the ORK you tried , I bet it ran smooth huh? he does balance these motors well. the actros always had a slight buzz while running , lower RPMs you could here it and also feel it too , power wise ? dont know , how did the power feel ? did it come down at 200 F
gov work good or did it serge the tail ?

it temped at 156 on the outside of the case and a few degrees lower
inside. i didn't try the e multigov, didn't get the radio set up right. i think i got it figured out tho. i used the gov mode on the esc other than the kick at start up it worked great. to bad gary didn't import these i think they might have worked out.
but i got a power jazz coming, just need to find a program card
before the 18th ( next funfly)
i'm PM'ing ya.

When just a E-Stratus isnt enough

I decapitated my Logo 14 VStabi, and stole the heart of it

Did a short test-hop in the backyard before darkness, hovered perfectly, flight-test tomorrow.

Had some issues, so Ive went back to paddles for now, first get the bird to fly good, then I will put on the VStabi again.

However, Got a new powertrain installed, a LRK 435.30 (specially modified for the Revolution 12s .90 sized heli)

http://www.heli-pro.de/lshop,showde...owrub--410,.htm

Its NOT a drop in replacement, had to manufacture a mounting plate, but it should be nice to see how it performs.
