Default RE: Hyperion Helios power and expectations

I have the 90e. I am currently playing around with some 10S packs and a Hyperion ZS4035 12 motor. The motor is supposed to fly on 8s. It is a heavy set up and is still totally ballistic! I am pretty sure that the plane will do just fine with the same set up that is being run on the Osiris. They are using the Hacker A50 12S on 5 cells. I could take almost 2# out of the plane and I feel it would be a much better performer. I would like to know if others have run it lighter with less power and what results they had.

Thanks for the reply,
Rick
