Default RE: CMP T-45 Bae Hawk Build!!!

Are you gonna go 6 cell Li-po on this or higher?

The reason I ask is that its generally accepted that this aircraft is too heavy for 6-cells with all the bells and whistles. Guys are going fixed gear, no cockpit, doors, belly tank etc... Absolutely whatever to lose weight.

Those that went higher cell count, which is what I'm doing on mine at 8cells ~2500w, are wrapping the ducts in carbon fiber tow to keep these ducts from collapsing/Imploding due to suction pressure.
