Default RE: Nexstar conversion

ORIGINAL: 4*60

We are about to maiden a converted Nexstar which has 5 cell 3000mah combo for a pack (2s and 3s) and a 950 kv HK motor and 80 amp esc.
Draws 650 watts so it will probably be good.

Review says <span class="nexstarhead">42-50-800 Out-Runner Brushless Motor. Not sure why they say .32 when it can handle 925watts. Should be good.

What did you do about battery placement? Did you cut a hatch to allow easy loading and unloading of batteries? On the Nexstar EP the front windshield comes off to allow battery and electronics access and I am thinking of doing the same.
