Hi Terry,

Which version of the HiMax 2025 have you installed? What prop? Gear box ratio, if any? TIA

Hands down, that is easy!! Try the original GWS Formosa. I have over 100 flights on mine, and just love it. I have been trying for nearly 2 years to get hold of one of the "new" Formosa II's. GWS keeps advertising them, but still not available.
I upgraded mine to the HiMax 2025, and use a 3 cell LiPolly. On a 900 Mah I can get about 10 minutes on nearly full power.
I even set mine up for floats and I fly it several times a day when we camp during the summer, and it got rave reviews from the other fliers at our annual float fly last Sept.
The only criteria it does not meet for you is the 10oz weight. I believe mine is arount 14 to 15 oz.

Drop me a note if you want more info.
