E5 super stretch parts list

[Forced_Induction]

Im interested in putting together an E5 super stretch and looking for a parts list and Tail ratio recommendation. I'd like to run with the following:

710mm main blades
105 Tail blades
Quantum 4135 530kv motor
Running 12s
Less than 2000 headspeed.

What do you guys recommend?

Hi,

The tail parts needed are:

315-140 Tail Boom
320-500 Torque Tube
315-111 Tail Control Rod
315-117 Tail Boom Support Rods
317-302 N7 Tail Fin

On the head you will need to change the blade bushings to 5mm. Order 310-145 Bushings and 100-535A Bolts.

You may want to speed up the tail to at least a 4.9 ratio. The hard coat pinion 320-111H and 54T spur gear 320-154 will do this without any frame modifications. The 4.9 ratio will allow the lower head speeds without sacrificing tail authority.

Some use the "766-306  Carbon Tail Control Rod 770mm (766 Config)" instead of the "315-111 Carbon Tail Control Rod 728mm E7", and cut it to length, because of the different servo position on the E5 vs the E7.  I cut my E5SS tail control rod to 737mm, which gives the same ball link thread engagement as on the stock E5
