      Have a couple of MS composite sets, also have their 395s and 420s to try. looks like MS dont do the 385s now.
      SAB have had 385s for ever too. They may have some 380s soon also?

      Its crazy good. Its cheaper than the KDS combo with the scorpion! could buy the HW 50a platinum V3 and have change left over. Not that there is anything wrong with the scorp motors. But when given the choice :)

      Damn - Looks like someone just bought your Chase/kde combo Jeff... ;)

      He also sourced a hobbywing platinum 50 V3 as well - :)

      @Glen - I see Hunter is providing the "Kylin 50A ESC" in his combo... and on the KDS facebook page it has an esc that looks exactally like a rebadged hobbywing with "Chase esc" written on it..

      So is the Kylin 50A ESC a rebadged hobbywing 50A platinum ? as Hunter has no pics of that esc to check..

      It sure is!
      Im not sure if its actually a Kylin, or if the kylin was not ready and they went with HW instead.
      But one thing is forsure, all combos with the Chase ESC are the hobbywing platinum 50 V3.
      From the reviews i have read Its what id be picking for my little helis anway. Just wish they made a 12s version that could phase faster.

      Nice low HS flight from Brian Morris

      " For those that asked, flighttime 6:30 at low headspeed put back 1000mah after the flight. I didn't have my program box so the ebar is not optimized for slower headspeeds."

      So then they are all still on pre-order, correct? Sucks that kdsmodelusa just says "out of stock".

      Cant be out in the States before it gets to you guys, can it?

      The kit comes with this:
      • Scorpion HK2520-1880KV motor
      • hobbywing ESC 50A V3
      Where can I find that $40 KDS motor you all were talking about?

      Heres the all out kit with electronics:
      • Scorpion HK2520-1880KV motor
      • hobbywing ESC 50A V3
      • KDS N320S cyclic Servo*3PCS
      • KDS N320T tail Servo*1PCS
      • EBAR V2 Flybarless system
      Just not sure about the EBAR V2 FBL.. or the KDS servos

      What BEC would you all recommend to use when using the HV servos with this chase 360?

      So many dumb questions, but I really value your opinions...
