My 5in alien had been sitting on the shelf just gathering dust with the old electronics. The og cobra's, little bee's, moto tornado and 1177. My old fav just became my new fav. I know the 4.5 has been done before so I figured i'd change it up a bit by using the micro swift and slamming the deck. Instead of 35mm stand off's I used 25mm and have the room to go 20mm. The new Clracing f4 is a awesome fc, everything just works and is super easy to wire up. So far i'm really liking the power band of the Ls 2206 motors with the Hq 5x4.8x3's. Overall I think this rebuild of the iconic Alien turned out great and with the new electronics brings it into the present.
