Default RE: Beryll Flight Reports?

Robert,

Last season: Hacker 50 14XL, Falcon F3A Pro 5300 5s2p batteries. After NATS I tried some TP 5300 5s4p batteries and was favorably impressed.

New things I'm going to try this season: I've purchased a Hacker 50 13XL Competition motor and some Falcon 5000 5s1p batteries (these are similar to the TP eXtreme and Flight Power 5s1p 5000s).

The reason for trying the Hacker C50 13XL Competition is to pick up a bit more RPM. At times last year I felt like I was flying too slow. The new 20-30C cells should help too as they have much lower voltage drop than the TP 5300's or the Falcon F3A cells and from what I hear have more "kick".

Are you going electric Robert?
