Default Jeti Advance plus 70 OPTO

I bought one of these controllers thinking it would handle a 6S lipo ! as stated on the Hobby Lobby site, however after doing some homework it seems the majority are saying a 5S lipo is the max size !

Can anyone clarify this ?
Is anyone using the jeti 70 with a 6 S lipo ?

Thanks

Mel.

AXI 4130/16; Opto 70; 3s3200mah kokam 20c lipos (two packs in series); swinging an 18x8 apc-e.

Probably provides around 8lbs thrust...approx 8 minutes hard flying

Dorado, Thanks again. That's wierd you know, some R/C shops on the web are even advertising the Jeti 70 as a 5S ESC !! while it's sold as a 2-6S capable ESC. Wel I guess if yours is OK then mine should be too. I'd rther go 6S as I'm using the EFlite 60 in an Ultimate bipe. This motor is comparable to the Axi 4130 also.

Happy landings,

Mel.
