RE: Generator
Tony (or JAS),
Please comment on the consistency of the throttle response for your set-up (viz. discharge curve) throughout a flight. I have been doing some experiments with an electrified H9 Funtana (Hacker C50-10L, TP 7600 5s4p ~9C batteries, etc.) as a preliminary step toward deciding on a e-powered pattern model. I find a noticeable change in throttle response with this set-up over the course of an ~8 minute flight (comparable P-05 fly time with glow, anyway) that I would find undesirable in a pattern set-up. There is enough power throughout the flight, but you need more throttle stick to get the same vertical performance after ~20% of the capacity has been utilized. After that point the response is consistent over a larger range of the remaining capacity.
Regards,
Andre'
