It is the Spektrum voltage cap. Bascially it balances spikes both high and low on the power and ensures a more consistent voltage. They work very well at under 10 bucks. Several big plane foolz run them on high demand systems as well, JR and Futaba both sell them as well, Spektrums is the cheapest of course and does same thing, cheers. :wink:

Two more questions on those pictures:
1) is that two of the Spektrum satellite modules, one on the left servo bulge, and one also on the right, or are these two different stages with two different locations you tried? 2) On the left side, in addition to the Spektrum satellite, what's that other clear smoke plastic doohickey above the rudder servo? John EDIT: Now I see the "Spektrum AR9000 with dual antennas". Sorry.

I better start thinking of a paint scheme for mine since I don't want plain white and logos. Are you guys spraying a finishing gloss coat of some sort over the paint?

I had mine airbrushed by a good friend that does it for a living. He put much clear coat on mine.

Do you think it adds extra strength compared to an unfinished canopy?
