Thankyou everyone for your good wishes and comments.
Answering Russell about the TB-20 - My TB-20 has a L2210-1300 in it which HobbyKing don't have anymore. The disadvantage of that motor is that it needs the props with the hex cut slot in the back to fit on the nut. The only replacements that HobbyKing have are too flimsy and cavitate when in the air on full power making quite a noise. They have an L2210-1400 which would worsen this. The prop I use is an 8X6. Heavier props, fitted using washers and really tightening, overheat the motor. My recommendation would be a motor of 200W on 3S swinging an 8X6 sport prop. I have a 30A speedie in mine. The original motor was 150W rating which was a bit underpowered.
Back to the packing. Rather be flying!!!!
