Default RE: Walkera Dragonfly #36

hello OK I just finishet my test and the results: (the test was to see what the voltage going to the motor was when full throttle was applyed at reg pitch and 0 pitch)

ok I hooked a voltimeter to the wires going to the motor. After getting some one else to hold the controler [] (I don't like to let go of it ) they switche on 3D mode. the voltage with no pitch was
10.55v which is acceptable and make the blades spin quite nicely, no for 10 degrees of pitch it was at
7.98 and hovering back and forth between 8v and 7v which is totaly UNACCEPTABLE [:@]

ok so I've come to the conclusion that the nimh battery just doesn't have the umph (current) to get that motor moving at speed.I think the amperage (when mesuring the leads would spark, is that normal? if it is then the nimber is correct) I got 3.89 Amps. that really should be higher since amps are C's ok so jut to wait for the new battery to come.
