My L39 was put together this afternoon. The power set up is as follows
DS51
lEHNER1940
Spin 99 opto
I am trying 8s 5000 Thunder power cells
Weight is 8LBS
Watts are 1590

I was expecting around 1800watts


Watts per pound 198 which may not be enough for a good performance. My friend has flown the previous set up on 7lbs at 1033watts on a Plettenburg which was 147 watts per pound which was good but lacking which is why I changed the power set up.
Any how I will know how the new set up performs by tomorrow evening if the weather is OK,
