Hi there,

Last weekend I had around 12 flights with the model and setup.

Some facts from my side:

- I have around 500-800mAh less consumption versus the normal Hacker C54 I fly on my Promimtheas which is slightly heavier model. I think I can fly now with smaller 4.500 mAh and not 5.000 mAh for one schedule,with Q80 Senstrol.
- I do not use condition but I mix throttle with the channel in the Rx that controls the modes of the motor. The Torque Mode kicks in after 70-80% throttle travel.
- No cuts so far for me since I nearly never reach top throttle, the model would overspeed, something that you do not need anyway. But I have checked first on the ground, no issue at all. I am using the 120A ESC though.
- Break is phenomenal in straight and 45 degrees but not on verticals. Currently I am at the lowest RPM of the RPM mode and I think I need to experiment with higher rpm levels. Break in verticals is a matter of prop and pitch combined with suitable idle on the motor.

In general I am satisfied, the main problem of my model is not the motor currently, but trimming. I think I need to do some adjustments. Also I may try the 3B prop from Ralf Schweizer designed by Stefan Kaiser, may be vertical break is better.

I can not upload any pics in RCU since I am a new user (actually I am not) but unfortunately I have lost the credentials of my main account. :-)

Kind regards,
Nikos
