ORIGINAL: david hancock

Looking for some help/info. Would using 2 5000 Mha 4 cell packs work with the recommended EF motor or do I need to run 5 cell packs in the Vanquish? If I can run 4 cell packs, what performance difference would I be looking at. Just getting into the electric side of pattern and looking for some info. Thanks.

You need to use 5 cell packs, or choose a different motor. With 4 cell packs you will have lower voltage thus needing a higher "kV" motor to achieve the same power. If you go that route, you will get shorter flight times as you will be making power with current instead of voltage.
