    Hey marico,
    nice kit, I had the same question about 2 months ago... 8717's or 610's.
    If you look at spec for both they run at the same speed, but there is saving to be made if you go with the 610's. I ended up however going with the 8717's as I used them on all my machines and know they are near impossible to strip gears when crashed....
    As for fuel, I can put you in touch with a guy in Dublin that has a good bit of optifuel 30%. There should also be 12% and 20% arriving some time next week. We'll also be at the 3DX event this weekend in Portadown....

    I can't go to the 3DX,i have to work on weekend :mad:

    But im going to 3D masters in july,in spain,i can't wait!!!

    I might go for the 8717,i have a friend he flies 3D hard in brazil,he was using the DS610 on a 600NSP,but after 300 flights,he start having problem with the servo because,it was centering very good and start having some slop on the gears.

    Yep, I heard stories like that before, they are meant to give a more humming noise than usual when in use. However they seem to suit Alan Zsabo (who is supposed to be judging 3dx this weekend) but than again he is sponsored by them.
    Is it you first time going to 3d masters.... I have been there the last 3 years and loved it... however this year I am going to IRCHA again so going to give it a miss for this year. I am sure there will be some Irish lads going over to support John O'Rourke that you could hook up with.

    At www.greenhobbymodel.com 30% nitro fuel is not listed on the website.
    But don't assume that means it is not available, because it is.
    Due to the slower turnover of those particular higher nitro blends, and the benefits of fresh model fuels, all fuel mixes between 30% and 65% nitro are made from fresh components on the day of collection.
