Recieved the eagerly awaited Ametek 30v motor off Tom today.
Got it all hooked up and mounted on a very short test pole.
Got up to 9 volts, 3ft off the ground!!!
Noticed my blades were badly out of balance, ordered some new alluminium ones - too much disgust by some
Due to limitations on picture size here, I am hosting them myself plus a small video

Overall very happy so far - need to mount on my main tower and get some balanced blades fitted. and waterproof the motor with a piece of 4" PVC guttering.
