Hi Raptureboy,
  • I thought that the Lipo batteries should be at 3.8 volts per cell all the time.
  • If not what should the range be that they work in, from the just charged state to run down state and needing a charge?
  • Also do you know if there is a way to measure the RPM of an electric ducted fan motor?
I know it’s been a few days but I wanted to fly it again and see the results and get back to the forum here?

Thanks
Ed
