Many thanks for your response!
I'm gonna pull the trigger as soon as Tower gets them in stock.
This will be my first time going to a 5 or 6S setup, I'm looking at inverter generators, the Ryobi's from Depot look real nice, but will they hold up like a Honda?
I do fly smaller gassers as well, so if the electric conversion disappoints, I can always hang a DLE20ra on it, I think that would haul it around real nice as well.
I'm not a 3D flyer, I don't look for unlimted vertical.
A friend recently got one of the GP Factor 30cc planes and is running 10S 5000mAh with the recommended Rimfire 160. Awsome performance! He can get 10 minutes of mixed aerobatics and still have about 30% remaining with packs barely warm, very impressive!
Best regards,
Pete
