[NSRCA-discussion] Vanquish Maiden Flight - Outstanding!!

[Keith Hoard]

I'm using the FMA Cellpro 4S-2100 batteries, stock ESC and motor, APC
11x7 prop.  I was pulling 39 amps at full throttle on the ground.
Next time I fly it I'll leave the Eagletree logger in the plane and
record a full flight.

I flew a 7 minute flight and the charger said the batteries has 35%
charge remaining afterwards.  The battery was a little warm, so I'm
going to open up a couple bays in the bottom of the fuse to get air
moving across the battery.

I have to agree about the quality of the plane. . .top notch, easiest
ARF I've ever assembled.  Every piece fit like a watch.
