New E6/E7 owner in San Jose

[timz]

I've just purchased an E7 and will be researching the best setup for it here. I already have the Vbar and Outrage HV servos for it, but need to decide which motor to use.

Lots of us are using the Hacker 470kv motor. What is nice about this motor is that you could use it in both E7 and E6, therefore if you ever decide to change up your E7 to an E6 you will not need to change the motor.
What ESC are you going to use? Lots of people are using the CC ICE 120HV and lots of other guys, who are still afraid of the CC ESC, are using the Kontronik ESC. I'm using the Kontronic 80HV in both my E6 and my E7.

2 thumbs up on the Hacker Turnado http://www.aero-model.com/Hacker-Brushless-A50-12L-Turnado.aspx but I'm using a Scorpion HKIII 4035-450 I already had that does well. If I replace this motor it would be to go with the Hacker. I'm also running the CC V2 120.

Hacker 470 and cc ice2 120 here. I don't log my flights like I should, but I figure I am approaching 100 flights since November. All problem free. Rather no problems with the electronics.

I have an ice2 120hv available. I will probably order the Hacker based on what I've read here.
Thanks for all the replies.
