I just got this same SAPAC L39 and I must say the quality is supreme. I also got the RZ180 retracts with it and they were a bit high priced, but after getting them they are also machined so well I think they will last me a long time. I am installing a Hoffman Magnetics Wild Beast in it that I already had. These are now my favorites. Sapac also makes a BAe Hawk that is super cool as well. Check my vids from Georgia Jet Rally in HD and feature more EDF (as well as turbine)
HOLY CRAP! What kind of speeds were you pushing on those passes? The ONLY thing I don't like about electric ducted fan planes is that there flight time is like 4 or 5 minutes. Other than that, they're AWESOME! Great video.
1400watts / 14.4v = You're pulling 97amps on an 80 amp esc, I just fried my 80amp castle pulling similar numbers after about 2 seasons....
