I talked with Manfred about the model and his setup.

The numbers are quite a shock to me.

It is 11kw or 11,000 watts this is about 14+ HP Pattern setup is around 2000-2500watts. So basically this is 5-6 times a pattern model setup.
Batts were 14S and I think 4P 9600mah Almost double the capacity for the pattern setup..Voltage on 14S is 58.8V

Current draw 220amps

It has a little more power than a DA100 in the same model.

It was impressive. But its totally beyond a pattern setup.

Motor is 700euro or $840 US
Batts are currently 1800euro $2150 US

I'm not sure how Manfred had the packs distributed in the plane I think it was (2) 7S sticks. Wheras for the pattern models we are using (2) 5S sticks.

Basically this was an effective competition model. But doesn't really carry over to the pattern stuff. Pattern is limited to 42V so 10S is it. This is a way more powerful setup and is basically equivalent to a DA100. This is a different application. Oh and it is a single motor not a twin motor on a single shaft type of thing like some have seen pictures of.


Cool Model! Fun to watch. Manfred is a cool guy to talk with as well.
