I have flown both back to back many times in contests and for practice and I didn’t see any outstanding differences. I originally started with the Hackers three years ago and liked their power and quality. Three years of constant use here in Mesa AZ proves the reliability and toughness of the Hacker. I moved to the Plettenberg because of the heat here in AZ and in the Hacker motors. It’s a 50 mile round trip to the field for me, so turnaround time was the issue for me. The Hackers get hot and take time to cool down here in AZ. I was told that heat was not a problem with the Hackers but with an ambient tempter of 100+ degrees here in Jun, July and Aug, and trying to get 6+ flights in, I did have my concerns. The first thing I saw with the Plettenberg is that they ran much cooler so I was spending less cool-down time. I was able to take advantage of open slots to pick and choose as to which others that I felt safe flying with. One midair is too many. The Plettenbergs are also slightly easier on the batteries. If I lived in a cooler area I’d stay with the Hacker. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Gary Switala<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> NSRCA-discussion [mailto:nsrca-discussion-bounces@lists.nsrca.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Mike Mueller via NSRCA-discussion<br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, December 17, 2014 10:24 AM<br><b>To:</b> Bob Kane; General pattern discussion<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [NSRCA-discussion] Hacker A60-7s-v2<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal> Ron it's strong and nothing wrong with it.
