My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Hi Guys, Toxic Al from TRM here, yes I know I'm a gas guy and am in an electric discussion but i have electrics too.Here is my ? I have a carbon 550 swift that i have not had much luck with the 550 motor and 4s set up that it came with so I have upgraded my set up. By opinion of pilots here and on other forums one of the best setups is the sorpion 4025-1100kv with 6s batt. I bought a new scorp 4025-1100 and battery. here is my problem THIS THING IS HUGE!! It hits the nuts of carbon plates that support the top block. Ideas? any help will be appreciated. Peace, Toxic Al

1100 KV and it fits LOL
Sorry Al had to do it.

Hope you get a hit on sombody that ran into this. I know in the swift 16 I have seen it as a drop in but never saw that motor in the carbon myself.

You will like the 6S on 1100KV with a 9 pinion. It is a very potent power set up.... lighter 4000KV packs runs nice and killer 3D power but 5000KV batts do not make it feel like a big pig at all.

Good luck !

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Al always with the MODS to get the power
Let us know how you like the 6S ... and the increase in flight time.
I run mine on the 9T and 100% throttle in idle up
Was running 560 RT blades dropped back to the 520MM with great results on increased flight time and about the same pop.

That should be a monster. I'm flying the 4025-1100 on my Logo 500 and it's awesome.

Good luck with yours.

Keep 'em flying.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Al , if you were referring to me as one who mentioned the 4025, I hope I didn't mislead you somewhere. I have the Swift 16 Super .46 sized ! Heli with the 4025-1100.

Should've bought a sim. Got a bucket of used blades!

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I wasn't pointing any fingers, but I did not consider the swift 16 and carbon 550 to be diferent as far as motor placement. no biggy, I made some mods to frame and it dropped right in and all is good. Peace All, toxic al

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		How was the power Al ?

I know mine with the Century 1100KV on 6S at 100% with a 9T pinion is a great combo pulling 520 blades.
