What setup you have? My setup is Scorp4035-560/11T/JivePro80(mode4). I am flying Gens 3300's and getting 5 minutes@2200RPM and 23-25% of juice left in batts after flight. BigAir to mild 3D.

You may have an issue with depth on the X8 servos. You will have to step them out a little...

And maybe on 600SX it's cleaner, nicer and easier to use ECS with internal BEC. The airframe is not very optimized for installing lots of electronics and clean wiring. I had a Talon120HV and was using it's BEC with great success before I put JivePro80HV in it.

No, the tail is fine, the left cyclic servo hits the elevator servo unless you space it out...

Im using 2S 2200mAh and 2S 1500mAh packs to feed the electronicks and its the easy way of doing it as you dont need wired to feed the RX supply and the RX pack can be put ontop of one of the front flight pack.
At leas thats how i do it on my Logo.

Ordered mine today. I'm going with Hyperion 3700 HV lipos. Weight is 490g per 6s pack. Going to run Pyro 700-45 with 12 tooth pinion. Did you go 12 tooth as well..? I also ordered the static kit. Not sure if still necessary, but figure it can't hurt....
