I don't think canisters will work... just no space for it.

Hey Mith, do you think the GP Extra could be used for IMAC?

Mate

pick your 150cc engine of choice and go for it. The plane is going to perform very well on any motor in that class.

Guys, was going to order the UNIHUB from Airwild, does anyone know if the servo arms that come with the lit would work with the unihub? Also the rudder tray, what do you recommend, I do, would the Airwild stuff work on the tray the kit comes with, stuck right now with no servo wheels!!

I used the air wild arms on everything and they worked perfect. the hitec arms will not work with the arms in the kit they are to thick

I used the standard aluminum arms the same size that came in the kit. Same on the rudder but double sided.
