Link to how eStunt works?

Is there an article (or a link to) about how electric stunt works, for example, how to work out which batteries to use, how the timer or speed-controller works and how to adjust revs for different props, please?
(I'm new to electrics, as you can see.

Hey Russell
Firstly I would say have a look at the "List your Setup" thread on this forum.
http://stunthanger.com/smf/index.php?topic=12044.0
This will give you an idea of what folks on this forum are using in different sized models. From there you can get an idea of a typical setup that may suit your needs.
Second, have a look at Dennis' Thread on "Brodak Turnkey Systems"
http://stunthanger.com/smf/index.php?topic=14925.0
This thread gives you an idea of what systems are available from Brodak for different sized models.
Third, Have a read of my "Electric Power Systems for Control Line" articles in ACLN
http://www.dkd.net/clmodels/acln/acln142.pdf
and
http://www.dkd.net/clmodels/acln/acln143.pdf
and
http://www.dkd.net/clmodels/acln/acln144.pdf
The three part series was created from information I have gathered mainly from this forum.
Then look into the individual threads here and ask lots of questions. There are plenty of knowledgeable people here who will only be too pleased to help you out.
Cheers
Warren

Guys, ACLN 144 isn't up on the web yet. Give it a week or two and it will be there.
Cheers

Warren,
Great articles which clearly spell out the basics of creating an electric set up for control line that will work first try. You have done the control line community a fine service putting these together. The whole publication is a really slick well organized and useful communication. It appears that control line flying is alive and well in Australia!!
Thanks, John

Thanks John, I have received a lot of positive feedback like this, however there have been a few that are not happy about what we have achieved. Their loss unfortunately. I am not concerned about them. They don't bother me one bit.

Maybe the moderator would consider making this topic "sticky" or "pinned" or whatever it's called so it can appear at the top of the list of threads, so than new folks can find it easily?

Or, even better, publish all of the articles here -- with the proper permissions and attributions of course -- and make THAT thread 'sticky'. The articles are excellent, and as pointed out above, a real service to the ECL community.
