Question Question for the Seasoned Expert Pilots.....

Simple question just trying to get an idea where Im going with these batteries I just bought.

** What airframe is the best 3D/AEROBAT based on using 6S EVO 3700 25C Batteries. I have 2 and I want to use them right they were really expensive.

Im currently using them on a 50" Katana which puts my wing loading over my comfort zone. (Im switching the Kat to 5S batts)

** 6S whatcha got guys ?? Money is not my concern, peformance and your opinion is. **

Fliton inspire 60 and a suitable outrunner. I had a Power 60 on mine and it was plenty, but I'd prefer a hacker or Axi. I'd say go for a neu inrunner, but it might be too light to get the right cg without adding weight.

I can not say specifically, but I would call Ben at 3D Hobby Shop. The man has all the answers.

http://www.atlantahobby.com/shopexd.asp?id=7369 My choice would be the SEBART Sukhoi 29s 50e. Should plaster a smile on yer face for many many trips to the field.

EF 58" Extra 300 all the way! I have flown the Katana, and it is a great plane, but nothing can compare to the EF Extra 300! It flies more like a 30% than a 20%! Totaly rock solid and precise! And,... as iceing on the cake, the tail surfaces are airfoiled! Here's a link to a video of me flying mine: http://www.flyinggiants.com/gallery/...0&ppuser=18976 You can't go wrong with this plane! Just my $0.02.
Thanks,
Daniel

Can I use this setup on the EF Extra??

1. AXI 4120/18
2. SPIN 77
3. 6S 25C 3700

This extra seems to really catch my eye, especially in the yellow scheme....

I beleive so, just don't fly at full trottle. The EF Extra is a verry ridgid plane in the air. If you saw the video on the link that I posted, you know what I mean! I think that the Extra would be able to handle more power than any of the Sebart planes. I personaly, would not recomend the Sukhoi, I have the S30, and EF's planes are SO much better. Just my $0.02. Hope this helps.

I am using the recomended power setup from EF. HS-5245MGs on the tail surfaces and HS- 225MGs on the ailerons. The CG is about 1/4" in front of where the manuel suggests. - I prefere a forward CG. You can't go wrong with this plane! Gald you liked the video.
