Hi Guys,

Andre',

I truly have not found what you are describing. Not with my Partner or with my Funtana S40. I am using the new 10s3p 5700's in the Partner now, and they work the same as my older packs. In fact, I find the power to increase as the packs get warmer during the flight. I try to warm the packs up prior to a flight by leaving them on the dash of my van in the sun. If the packs are cold at the start of a flight the power will be a little down until they warm up.

One of the things that has amazed me about the electric power is how consistent it is during a flight.

byoung466,

I did have a cell go bad on a pack last weekend. It was one of the new 10c packs from TP. They told me to keep the loads and charge rates low for the first few cycles to break-in the packs, and I thought I was doing that, but the demagged motor condition I described earlier was really loading the packs too high. I have sent the pack into TP for repair.

Cell life is still yet to be really determined. I have maybe 60-70 cycles on a single pack, far less then what they should do. So it will be a while before I know if they will do the expected 400-600 cycles.

Niall,

Sorry, I have not measured the incidences. I initially put them on the marks that are on the fuse. But I have adjusted them some during trim flights. So I really don't know the exact measurements.

Hope this helps!
