A123 test
Today I had a brain fart. I am flying the rcpilot katana 100cc running 6 7955s and 1 8711 for the rudder plus throttle servo. So I charged my 2 A123 2300s at the Field. I had 4 good 11 minuet flights then in the middle of my 5th flight 100 yards out doing rolling harrier 30 feet up when the motor went to fail safe. Engine went to idle and I was able to level it out when everything went dead. All i could do was watch as it glided in. Hiked out there to discover no damage to the plane. Servos were buzzing but they didn't have enough power to move. Pulled the canopy to discover I had only plugged in one battery. It read 4.5 volts and took a little over 2100 mah to charge. What a way to test how many flights I can get out of a battery.
