I am transferring my O.S. GT15HZ gas engine to another airframe, and noticed that, the ignition module metal braid wire to the spark plug is worn in a few parts.

Does anyone know where to buy some metal braid wire to patch it up?

I dont care about aesthetics, its the RF shielding that I am worried about. Would it be enough to go to a hardware shop, and get some metal braiding of a plumbing hose fitting?

I am guessing for EMI shielding, copper metal would be best. Maybe some copper tape from Altronics or Jaycar?

Well every once and a while new stuff comes along and you think that it cant improve on current technology. Such is the case I thought with HALO blades until I grabbed a pair of switch blades from @ZENRC for my Goblin 380 on the weekend. I was lucky enough to give them a blast today.

Hi there

After 26 flights with my 700L dominator (castle 160 hv / 850mx) I have to say that Im not satisfied with the governor of the esc. From instable rpms to gear chattering and back.. Means that I have tried several tuning options and didnt get stable rpm - I have always a slight tail blowout (nose left) on all rpm, low mid and high.

The tail torque precompensation of my beastx is wothless anyway. That option just doesnt work. Tried that allready on my 500 and now on the big one.

Seems that I have to run the 700 with the good old throttle curve. Getting a VBar with governer or...
