Here are some photos of my Brushless converted Su. Notable features:
  • 5g brushless motor.
  • 2cell lipo mounted in an extended belly slot.
  • Carbon stiffeners in both elevator and rudder.
All up weight with brushless conversion and carbon stiffeners is 38g, only a couple of grams up on stock... flies like you would expect

My bad, Steve is absolutely correct on the arm adjust. I thought about that twice when I typed it and still got it backwards

Steve: very nice motor conversion, yours should fly like what people were hoping for when it came out. Are you still using the stock receiver/ controller?
