Thomas,
Looks great. Nice and smooth with a solid head speed. Video frame rate is a good tool.

Thank you Butch.
Your build has motivated me to convert my Dauphin from nitro to electric. That custom motor mount is worth its weight in gold.
It flies better than my nitro engine did. It was always fussy, now a joy to fly. I would be happy to share any CAD files.
