Default RE: Seagull Edge 540 60 e-conversion

I have this Seagull Edge with an electric setup. This is the motor I used; [link=http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=2097]Link[/link] I am using this with an OMERC 100A ESC and Polyquest 8S 4350 packs. I am currently using an APC-E 18x10 prop and it is pulling 65A and 1800W. I gave the plane its maiden today and it has plenty of power, good verticals and pull out. Airspeed was a little high so I think im going to go with an 18x8 or 17x8. After a 4 min flight the packs were barely warm and only took 1500mah out of the packs so looks like flight times are going to be 7-8mins. I am very impressed with the setup, here are a couple of pics;
