I use 3000ma lipos and she weighs in at just under 2kg i can shed some more weight as i am making some better qaulity chassis members to bring this down and to mount the gps too.

what sort of flight time are you getting with that weight?

Steve i have never flown a pack right out with her becouse i have set the voltage alarms for 3.4 volts and always land after eight minutes no matter what, the alarms usually sound at six to seven minutes depending how hard i fly her, i will post a small video of the currant draw during the hover with a watt meter carried on her back before the fpv gear was fitted the currant draw at hover was 20 amp i have not done it since though :)
