I understand that a poor electric throttle setup can create the illusion of more power with more stick but in actual fact you are only increasing the amps drawn which only creates heat, and poor efficiency.

Steve, how did you determine where to limit your motor? During flight data or by setting it on the ground?

I am about to try the new Dualsky GT series 3800 packs that are rated at 22C continuous and 50C burst. Weight of the packs going into the plane (2 5s) is 1025grams. They are soon to be releasing the 4500 packs for those who want a little more cusion or flight time.

I will be flying the motor that Don tested, the Duasky XM6350-16T. I am waiting on props to try, 18X10, 19x10, and 19X12.

The plane weighs right in at 10 lbs and 1 oz, i imagine it will gain a couple just sitting there and will weigh it after maiden to make it official.

This setup should be fairly affordable as well and I think might attract a couple of people who want to give electric a shot without much more cost than premium glow setups.

Thanks

Chuck
