Kind of a pain but the answering service will send you a catalogue with all the info and prices you need. Also Don's hobby shop is carrying the Powerflite products. try [url]www.donshobbyshop.com.[/url]

Yes, What nicads are you running, Your scale must be off, I've never seen nicads that light, 600 mah maybe, but NOT 6 volt packs! I beg to differ with your theory... [/QUOTE]

Never said I run 6V I use 4.8, 6V and my servos are too quick, I dont like them much faster than what they are on 4.8V. When I used Duralite I knocked them back to 5.1V. I use 1000 mah 4 cell and it weights in at 3.5 oz, and I get 7 flights on that pack before it is in need of recharge so I could probably get away with less since I only put in 4 flights on it anyways.

I learned an expensive lesson with the Duralites and I looked very hard at what I needed, I came to the conclusion that with Nicads, my pattern ships are weighing in at 9.6 lbs, my new Evolis's should be more like 9.25 lbs so am I really concerned about weight..... not really since I will have DZ's on them also I ran regulated 6V so lower voltage is of no concern, you cant tell the difference between 5.3V and 4.9V during flight, I get lots of flight time and they are cheap. As I said before it is going to take a long time and a lot of proof before I start shelling out that kind of $$$ again.

Status: offline 		Ok, I see. You are refering to their normal Li-I packs. I was refering to their Powerbar packs, which are(I think) 2.3oz. Anyway, I need lots of power for My ultimate with 8 servos, (3 digitals), and a smoke system, I'll go with Powerflights for that.
