Yes-it's a little more versatile with more options (1) is on the OMS with the A60 and the other is on A Brio with a 5330 F3A. Since both are recent additions--C50XLs w/Masters up to this point--I, along with many others evidently, are experimenting to find the best set-up--but a couple things: Low timing, 8-15 switching, set end points and backed off to like 70% of full throttle, run an idle.<BR>
Since every airframe is going to have its sweet spot on the right combination of this stuff and props; there seems to be a lot of <EM>trying</EM> involved.<BR>

Between the V1 and current V2 versions, I’ve probably got about 800 flights. On 10S, the motor can hit 8000 RPM on an 18.1x10 glow prop. At the higher RPMs (~7000+), the “E” props don’t seem too happy (amp draw relatively high for the speed and thrust produced). Run an 18.1x12 and an 18x12E and the difference is pretty dramatic.</SPAN></FONT></P>

He wasn't nuts about the result and traded it off--was then converted to the A60. That guy wasn't crazy about it either(but I don't think he had it set up right). Someone was interested in my last IC airplane(an OMS) and bought it--I had found this could be had the night before for not too much more than the other--so I turned around and got it same day--am now totally E. Had to rework the entire innards to get the balance right with the 5000s--but I think it will be worth it. I've felt all along that these older designs would be good for E and am fortunate to have come up with this one.<BR> <BR>Still learning things like you can put too much power to the larger out-runners and they can go a little(OK--a lot) nuts (screech) if not set up properly and there is some experimenting with timing and other stuff that will increase 'milage' without loss of power--of which there is plenty.
