Can a Funtana X100 fly 3d on 6s
Can a Funtana X100 fly 3d on 6s?
I can't get an ESC capable of handling 8s so I'm left with 6s solutions only. It would be good to keep prop diameter at 18 inches. Has anybody 3D flown the Tana on 6s?
Thanks in advance.

The ESC is the limiting factor, not the battery. From what I gather, you need atleast 8S to fly it adequately, 6S for a plane this size is like using a 2 cell lipo on a Mini Funtana X.

Maiden Castle Creations makes an 80amp esc. My LHS has them i think. Again i go thinking lol. But if they do and i will check today for you I will let you know and maybe they can send it to you. I am pretty sure it will be a Castle and there your paying for name brand will probabaly run big buck or so I got a 60amp Castle and it cost 118.00. Or do you need a 110amp.?
