Hi Saurabh,

I love this motor especially if you could keep the AUW less than 300g. Its a good cheap combo in my experience so far. I have tried this on my GeneBond's YAK54 foamy before and found good. I haven't checked the amps draw yet on this and didnt fly her for long today due to heavy winds. Will find out soon and update. And by the way, a 1000mah 3S IMHO will be too heavy for such an airframe for 3D.

Thanks Santhoshji :D and the HK YAK55 is a blast to fly if the AUW:power:thrust ratio is good. Find some time dear ;)

Hi akky, nice click there! Man fix the rudder and fly here again. This is so far the best small foamy I have ever flown. Eagerly waiting for the windy climate to change.
