I like the lower CG and the assembly method. It appears the mold design precluded a form fitting notch. I think the instructions should suggest the use of optional sand bags on the legs. Can it accept 1/8", 3/16", and 1/4" rods?
Looking forward to the controller close-up pictures.
Speaking of kit talk we updated the Hi-Test 3100 page in anticipation of the new Estes 29mm BP motors.
