Hey Guys,

Had a power failure on mine which caused a flip and killed one motor.

Luckily i allready ordered some different motors to try:

Turnigy Aerodrive SK3 - 2122-2100kv

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...dProduct=36817

HQ Props 5x3

Battery 1500 mah 3s

She hovers at 40% throttle with the 1500 mah 3s battery

Just out of curiosity i installed a 3700 mah 3s battery and she hovers at 50%.

I'll probably be running a 2200 mah 3s for most of the time.

might try a 2s battery later on 6x3 props.

Hey Paul,
Any idea what sort of current you're pulling? I'm seeing a max of 11.8A (3S 1000mAh) in free flight and it doesn't have a lot of snap vertically with the little 1811/2000Kv motors, I'm suspicious that the weedy thin wire is the limiting factor......? Like the orange and black colour scheme by the way...
