Build Log - T45 Goshawk Sapac from RC-Warbirds.com

On hindsight, I think the Castle logging of amp draw is highly suspect. There is a amp hour reading and it reads 3.14 amp hour when I actually only charge back 2178 mah. 2178/3140= 0.693. This means I am prob off the mark by about 30%. IF there were the case, the max amp draw could more be like 0.7 x 101= 70.7 amp. That will yield about 2.1 Kw which looks more about correct to me. I will have to measure with my amp meter one day.

I am slowly approaching the Kilowatt club.

Flew my FJ yesterday on HET 2w25 on 4S 5.5x4.5 and got 70amps. Unfortunately the 70amps ESC from hobby King is for heli and I not able to re-program to turn off soft start mode. I get a slow spin for about 3 sec before sudden surge in power. Quite scary when I tried to land. Ah Tan say like turbo lag... hahaha

I might stay with 4S for now. I wanted to try 6S on this baby but I am afraid my heart and brain cannot catch up.

This plane not 3 kw lar. I checked the nos. doesn't seem right. At most 2.1 kw only keke. The big plane is just a bit below 3kw keke, 2.96. The 12s heli also below 3Kw. Only plane I have 3kw and above is the Rw2B lol.

I am sure your heart and brain can catch up.....it's more likely your hands can't.
