RE: Mini plane motor issue, help????

I think it is the ESC. I have a hobbyking micro 12amp ESC that I think I'll wire in and try instead. This is kind of silly that it is this difficult to get this going. Lol!

Powerbox Battery cell issues

Powerbox systems appears to have a case of false advertising going on. They tell you in their manual for their batteries:

RE: Great Planes Super Sportster EP with Modified Power System
