I run a 1/8 scale unlimited hydroplane for three to 6 heats of roughly 5 minutes each on a single Futaba 4.8 volt flat receiver battery pack and that's running two power hungry digital servos, one of which is a high torque type. That has me thinking something else:
How are your battery packs secured inside the plane?
Since Jaka brought up battery output, let's take this a little further. What actual servos are you using? Telling us you used $10 Hitecs is like saying "I drink cheap wine", giving us nothing to go on as far as what the servo can handle.
I wasn't able to tell what was a glitch and what wasn't in the video. The camera wasn't always on the plane so knowing what the plane was doing was just guesswork as far as I'm concerned
