[NSRCA-discussion] Axi electric set up

[AtwoodDon at aol.com]

I should have said I only have about 15 flights on my TrueRC packs at this  
point so Jim's info has more historical value.  My typical battery temp  after 
landing is 105-110F after a P09 flight in 85-90 ambient temps.

Maybe  Dan should up the continuous current rating.  If you hadn't   
reported that you were using that high a discharge rate, I wouldn't   
even consider trying them and I'm probably not the only one.

BTW,  how cool is "cooler than my other packs"?  Depending on the   
ambient temperature, John and I  are seeing 105 - 100 degrees F  at  
the end of a flight.  When he was using some 5S-4000 packs  earlier,  
he was seeing 125 - 135 degrees F at the end of a  flight.
