Default RE: F27 Stryker Part 9: Crazy DARK SIDE - Beginners to Dark Extremes

I really have been on a build binge lately. Just can't seem to get enough of it!
If I'm not working, I'm building. Little bit of food and sleep in between.
At least I'll have plenty of toys to play with come springtime.

Best thing for the Green Monster setup is to get more volts to it. I've been running 6S 4000 and 6S 2200 in parallel for 6S 6200, but am not getting good volts on the setup. Think the 4000 cells have sustained crash damage.
I do have a 6S 5000 30C that hasn't seen much abuse yet. I can try running that with the 2200mah and get 6S 7200 and see if that gets the voltage up at all.

I don't really have 7S capability in the capacity I'd need to run this thing.

But I DO have a pair of 4S 4000mah 45C packs not getting used right now that I could run as 8S 4000!

That will mean stepping down to 7" props from the 8x8 that I was running on 6S. But it should be fun one way or another! And LOUD!!! If I stay with 7x5 and 7x6 I may even generate enough thrust to get the plane within 80% of pitch speed. We shall see...
