Thats a big motor there Mark - looks like the leccy bug has bitten the boy hard these days

Won't upset the seagulls on the Orme

yeah its quite a big motor, I will be joining the 6kw club aprox 3 times the power of the edge I was flying.

6kW eh...... warm and toasty

Closer to 7kW if it works properly enough to fry an egg

Slow day at work then Mark?

You knows it

You must have one of those 'fishermans tales' calculators for the power.
10S cells, 4v per at the very best (more like 3.5v per)under load =35v to 40v
120A esc
:. 120 * 35 or 40 = 4.2kW or 4.8kW
or are you going to be runing 20S

Is the Lager to keep the motor cool???

Allan, you are quite corect I was working on 20s not 10s2p dough!

4800 ish is were its at giving aprox 240w per pound on on a 20lb model

bit of a blonde moment there lol ahh well better unstich my 6kW badge and dig out a 4kW one

Mike the larger is to get over the shock of the price of lipos

Should still fly very well. You'd be surprised how little power is needed for a lot of the flight, as was shown by the eagle tree inflight logger on my 1st PC9.

Still waiting on the packs, but its in the car today to go to the field tonight for final fettling. Got my old 10s packs to test everything out.

Main reason is its a reet pain to get it all together at my house to sort ballance and movment so I'll try and get that all sorted tonight. then it should just be plug and play when the 60c packs land.
