i bet that thing dont run any faster like it is,,then if you took a few of them out-thingy's off,,,,imagine how much each prop is "stealing" from the 1 next to it,,i bet them things are only putting out half the power they would if they were by themselves,,,,i want a pic of it at full throttle,,hehe
