They look interesting Deano how long do they take to discharge roughly?

22

Hours lol discharging is one of the worst most time consuming parts of the hobby so make sure you fly all your packs if you can to avoid it lol

Not always possible though so get used to it as well lol

I will fly all of my packs for sure… IF I don’t crash in the first 3mins and break my Quad beyond use (which is a very likely possibility judging by my sim flights) :rofl:

Any recommendations on props by the way? Beginner props rather than the expensive pro ones until I get the hang of it lol

Obviously buy props to fit your frame so 5 inch props

Then you’re looking at the pitch of the prop a higher pitch prop will give more thrust but will be less efficient. Lower pitch props will be more efficient and would be more suitable for cruising rather than tight and aggressive turns.

In my experience 2nd wives are more understanding, I think they realise that the first one is the hardest to get rid of.

Do they not come in a nice scarlet red to match my motors on take-off or a muddy brown to match my motors on landing? :rofl:

Yes, red to take-off but how the hell are you going to get up there to change them to brown for the landing :thinking: :thinking:
