| Roadrunner reapearance Got it! Thanks for that. | |
| Roadrunner reapearance @phoenixengr- Good information(thanks)! I built my own SAMA, installing an original HW-19 motor, in a 16lb, solid slab of brass(base/adjusters/etc, added another few pounds), with just(barely) enough clearance for silicone heat sink compound. What... | |
