[NSRCA-discussion] Axi electric set up

[AtwoodDon at aol.com]

I was a bit skeptical too based on the 10C spec, however, I have  experienced 
the same as Jim and Chris.  They run slightly cooler than my  other batteries 
(TP and FP) and I am consistently hitting high 60s amp  load.  They also hold 
voltage better under load.

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.
