Well I had hoped to post some pictures of my new Lipoly setup on my Corona. It !QUOT!was!QUOT! flying great. I'm running the Kokom KOK1500HC-2S3P packs from FMA and I'm getting about 15mins of hard flying or about 25 mins of easy flying. I can add another pack and get about 35 to 40mins depending on how the thing feels that day (you know sometimes they have a mind of there own).

But unfortunately I'm not going to be able to post pictures with all my goodies on it like the proud papa I am, because Sunday afternoon while flying at about 100 - 120 ft up and about 100 ft out the antenna cable broke and lost connection. It just happened to pick that time to vibrate into, then down she came like a rock. Luckily no damage to the crutch (which is a first, thank goodness for metal crutches) but the electronics have had it. The Rx is in 3 varying sized pieces and the gyro is smashed.

But on a good note the batteries survived as well as the rest of the hardware. So with the overnights I should be flying again this weekend and if so I'll get some pics up.

Chris what motor are you useing just going through threads looking for corona enough of ic engines thoughts about useing lipos.

Don't laugh, but I'm still using my fusion 7. I had planned on ordering a brusheless this week but the crash took tat money so I'll have to wait alittle while long. The fusion isn't that bad for the moment so I'll live with it for another few weeks.

If I may ask......

What do the Kokams cost?

Thanks

I bought mine with the ESC because I needed a new ESC anyway. So I bought mine from FMADirect Part Number: LPS1500-2S3P the cost was 134.95 I have a spare that I bought for extra flight time that was about 33.00 w/ shipping from them as well.

Hope this helps
Chris
