As for me, I am really excited!!! I just got of an 11min flight with the stock pack, zooming all over, climbouts, FFF, some side in slow flight, and flying higher than I've ever been, prolly around 60' or so. Man I can't believe the difference in battery packs.
I have 2 csrc 1250mAh packs like arrow does, and the heli kinda just puts around on those, and get's about 15 min of flight. On the stock pack I am getting 11 min of really quite aerobatic type flight, and much cooler motor temps. On the csrc packs I am getting pretty close to +50, and on the stock pack I just got off a flight with the main motor 118, and the ambient around 85, WOW! what a difference =) This is what heli flying should be like =) For the first time today the battery temp was actually warmer than the motor temp, ok, so only about 1 degree, but hey =)
Yea mrasmm, I really believe that this heli is really designed around remaining
as light as possible.
Guys that are really ripping it up with this heli are flying even small and lighter packs than the stock pack.
Well tuned and properly setup this heli is very capable.
