Hey Archie,
When I flew your Wind Pro in the contest in 2010, I felt right at home with it. I like to fly a bit slower, as most people know and the Nue/plane combo was very confortable feeling. I think the battery usage was about the same between the two of us, if I remember correctly. I don't think I would have a problem with puffing good packs. I am using a Rhino 4900 20C pack and a True RC 5000 25C pack and usually have about 20-25% left in the packs when I recharge. Ofcourse; thats' on a average wind day. I have gone down to around 12% on really windy days for a 7 minute fight.
I am planning on using one of these mounts;

Let me know what you think about using one of these?
