Serum,

I stole the idea for those little legs on the motor mount from knotted, who is doing almost the same build. I just used some Shoe Goo to attach some spacers to the bottom of the motor mount. This raises the 1521 so that it doesn't hit the vertical plate on the motor side. It isn't a problem with a 1515 but the longer can on the 1521 required more clearance.

As far as cost goes for this thing.............................its still adding up.

Just the power system: Battery, ESC and Motor add up to a little more than a grand.

I need my head checked basically..............

I picked up some screws I needed from the hardware store today at lunch, and my balancer for the flightpower came in today so I should be up and running soon. My 5.5 bullet connectors should be in tomorrow or Wednesday. I would have just soldered as someone suggested but I am still finishing painting the body and getting the last bits together.
