Default RE: Hyperion 260 40e

I'm sooo sorry to hear about your crash. Thanks for the advice. I just put together (and maidened) an Aeroworks Extra 60-90 and am planning on using that as my 3d plane (I went WAY overkill with servo selection for both speed and torque. it's awesome). I'm flying a Pulse 40 right now, but I saw this plane recently and I got it for my birthday. After seeing how pretty the plane is, I want to treat it like it deserves to be treated with a nice e-setup and nice HT/HS mini servos and whatnot...but lack the funds. I'm going to use it to replace my Pulse (same equipment and whatnot), but I might have to put an electron-burning setup in it. That 1300W sounds impressive! I've changed my mind about the set-up thanks to Motocalc and a bit of my own changes. I'm really just planning on flying it around like a beater IMAC plane, but mostly just a decent sport flier. I'm thinking about going 4S but higher capacity cells to keep weight down but increase flight time. Since I don't want 3d, just solid pattern flying, I don't really need the extra thrust. I may get a 3S pack to add to one of my 2S packs and run 5S farther down the road.
