I got a new toy (plane) the other day to go with my helicopters.
Helicopter is a Blade 450 3D and is a blast to fly.
The plane is just fun and relaxing break from the helis. I'm saving up for a bigger heli now (600 sized which is 45" long) which is kind of hard cause i'm also saving for a 3 link and 35s.
I also have a team losi micro desert truck which I want to convert to brushless and lipo because the regular stuff has stopped working.

We have an Axial Ridgecrest and SCX10 Jeep Wrangler Rubi RTR for about a year now,love those things! That said,I haven't had op to charge and run either (gave the Ridgecrest to my 12 year old son) in months . Have almost enough upgrades ready to install to nearly build a pair of other trucks,LOL,just haven't had time (or being honest...haven't been in the mood of late) to install any of them yet :P

My sailplane went in the ocean, again.
Dry it out, replace the ESC and a servo or two, then back in the sky.

Did the math and at full throttle at 100% that motor is turning 50,000 rpm!

What pinion do you have? Run like a 12t pinion. If you are not already. I run a 5700 and a 7700 kv with no temp problems (2wd)

But I'm also worried about gearing down because I already have absolutely no traction. So gearing would make that so much worse at takeoff

I have a 14pole motor I should let you run in that thing an gear it 25\80 with no problems. It's a monster on 6s. Lighter also than your current motor.
