Roger,

Very interesting. I'm surprised at the results. It says it takes twice the thrust in all attitudes (work = force x distance) assuming you did the same size maneuvers. Do the planes have the same wing loading?

Do you guys do any battery thermal conditioning before flying? What temp and how long a soak is required?

Say hello to Wolfgang for me. I used to compete with him in the 70s when we were young and had lots of dark hair. He looks like he still has his (hair).
