    It's the wife's T4R so it's stock
    Do it...

    A: normal carbon pattern & 4 threads holes on motors (in the rest revisions are 2 holes)
    B: weave carbon pattern (stronger) with prop locks.
    C: weave carbon pattern with quick release props (E800 I believe)
    D: weave carbon pattern with quick release props. New mechanism for raising and lowering gear (1 piece vs. 2 piece of previous aircraft).

    I have a Rev B with prop locks... the C&D versions have 1/4 turn props that have been failing recently... I trust my original props with locks although setup for flight takes a bit longer... :)

    I want to hit the order button, it's been in my getfpv.com cart for a while. I won't get to enjoy it until August or something since I've been working out of town but I am 99% sure it's going to happen in August. @Delmarva

    Yep, didn't argue with my price either. Came in, cash in hand. Test fly went smooth as could be. He was happy, so was I. I lost a bit of money on the deal but he seemed happy to get the bird.

    I fly the inspire 1. And a multitude of other quads and tricopters. I'd share pics but the pics are all on my phone and I can't post pics from the phone
