yea sorry it was 45megs, I'm on DSL tho so it really doesn't matter, took like all of 5 minutes @ 80k/sec or so, I didn't watch it come in.

I'll try that if my current motor burns up anytime soon, but I just bought this great planes motor and it seems to run great, but my stupid esc is the same one you've got and I don't feel like pushing the limits on it. You say you run 8 cells on that futaba mc230? Thank goodness I have ~100 brick cells on my desk as I type this, so I can just make up a new pack for my micro, lol.

How long have you been running with 8 cells? I thought the mc230 could only take 7, so that's why I was running 7, which as you know is under the recommended power for the 280bb motor

I'll probably try your pinion mounting idea, but I already ground down, and notched the motor shaft so that I could get team orion alloy pinions to stay on the motor without flying off and losing the set screw after 10 laps...
