Gday all
Gary i may have started the sky fun saga but not the total expert.
I have smoked out many motors from stryker stock motors, to Turnigy hxt's to no name brands , but i found the Scorpion motor setup to be the most reliable and have taken off my retired sky fun setup and fitted to stryker and still going strong.

Scorpion Hk 2221-8 motor rated at 200 deg temp
Turnigy 80 esc
6x4 Master Airscrew Prop
Rhino 2250ma 40c 3s lipo
Metal Gear Servos

Though Kieran and Kev's Setup Is a Good Fast Setup on 4s using the Hobbyking 480l inrunner i think

Scorpion Hk2221-10 is a less Kv motor for good speed and long air time which i Tested for some time on stryker as well.

Also there is some tricks with Canopy lid hold down as Pictured using pen Lid and end or use of Velcro and Earth magnets.
Also motor mount should be re glued to Airframe as its not strong enough.

Hobbyking are selling Sky funs with std Servos 25amp esc and 1800kv motor which is a slow setup for about $100us delivered.
Though i still have my old contact from when i ordered a dozen from but i think i could still get them for airframe only without servos motor and esc but with motor bracket for about $70us maybe cheaper dependent on order quantity min is 4 the more i get the cheaper it is.
