[NSRCA-discussion] Axi electric set up

[James Oddino]

I've been pushing them with an 11T and a 20.5x14 at close to 80 Amps.   
I've got 63 flights on one pack.  It had 56 of those with the 12T that  
never seemed to pull more than 63 Amps.  I saw no degradation during  
that time.  The time on the 11T has been in very hot weather plus I  
use more mAh per flight.  I suspect that they will degrade faster with  
this set up but I'm hoping to cut the peak currents and the cumulative  
mAh.
We'll see, but I think I'm already ahead on a cost per flight basis.
