RE: Beginner Electric Pattern Airplane

agree with you on the Venus...it's a good introductory model for pattern...I fly mine on 3S lithiums, and although vertical is not unlimited, it has more than ample power for lower class pattern flying........I use a Maxcim D wind on 3.75 to 1 reduction, 3S4P TP cells 15X10 prop. max static draw is 41 amps....although its only490 watts, it only uses 1700 mah for a full 6 min flight....I can easily get 3 routines with takeoffs and landings from 1 charge......since I have 3 batteries, that's pretty much a full afternoon of practise with no field charging required. It flies just like a big formosa.
