They are DT-750 motors from hobbyking.com. They get a bad rap for bearing failures, but I now modify mine by adding a thrust bearing on the bottom end to distribute 100% of the weight off of the stock readial bearing and on to the airframe. With the mod, I think they are a good choice for reliability and efficiency.
It looks like I am moving to Reno by the end of the year so it will be easier to get together for flying.
What type of motors are those?
BTW, I'm in Reno, we should go flying.

The designers of the Moon Jumper are friends of the family. I heard about the show being produced and asked if they wanted some aerial video. The crew was receptive and allowed me to fly carrying a their GoPro at the end of each shoot once they had all of their planned footage completed.
