Default RE: Angel S EVO Build Thread

Hey Dudes!

I am awed to be in the company of so many high powered players, but given the recent discussion of power systems and my own experience with 2 current and flying Angels one of which I have competed with at the Sportsman level I feel like I have an honest offering to make to future owners.


First off this plane flies perfectly and is of the utmost interms of quality, but I defer on one minor point. It seems to me the target audience is up and coming pattern pilots who prefer e-power. The Hacker A50-12S on 5s with a 16x10 or 16x12 prop provides 1200 to 1400 watts of 8 to 9 minute power and leaves you with 5s batteries that will work in a full 2m plane when you are ready. I am certain that a 6s setup performs as well or better, but just wanted to add another consideration. I urge anyone reading this thread thru in consideration of purchasing an Angel to look at the comprehensive data I published both here and on RCG.
