New Miniature Aircraft Whiplash 700ex
Hey,
Started my build yesterday of the new 700ex and the components look and feel great! So far, I have not had to do any modifications out of the box... Everything is a nice fit. I am extremely impressed with the new sealed sprag. I will post some pics when I get a chance. If you are on the fence about purchasing the 700ex, do it.... You will not be disappointed! Steve

The question is - is the new sprag lower drag and easier to build up and align properly for smooth operation?
I got my 15T pinion this week and the runout is enough that it's unusable so my worn 14 went back in..... Slotted frames and spent about an hour on setup and still not smooth enough for me. Looking forward to seeing the new setup!

It is my understanding that the new sprag is not compatible with the current straight cut pinions. Jeff told me that MA will be coming out with a new sprag with straight cut pinion combo for about $60 and should be released later this month of October, hopefully. However, the pinion will be 13T only for now.

Do the new tuff strut skids have a narrower and slightly lower stance?

Narrower = yes
Height = same as older tuff strut. Lower than older Whiplash landing gear. |

I use a Castle Edge 120 HV with a Scorpion 4525 520 Ultimate.
I've been pulling the logs and this thing is running longer, cooler, and flying awesome!!!
