No! We can’t use 12S battery packs. We can’t be trusted around 12S battery packs! We are being protected from ourselves. Just do what you’re told and everything will be fine.

>>> I don’t understand how this rule change won’t affect the AMA classes. Most planes are designed to satisfy FAI not masters. So all future planes designed would be around 12S rather than 10S making the plane selection for AMA even smaller. This could also result in longer more complicated sequences. Bad idea unless we are going to make the same change for AMA classes.

>>> I think a source of universal pride among the pattern community is the positive ripple effect that development of our gear over the years has provided the entire model aviation community. This discussion is simply about the continued development of a power system...the evolution of electric power. I don't think this would have any significant real or implied effect on any AMA class. On the other hand, those that choose to try something new no doubt will - that's how it's always worked. How many folks in AMA classes fly YS-185s? That's a choice available to all of us right now..... Our 10S setup is great and should/will continue to be the standard for a long, long time - yet not a reason to stifle development.

>>> By changing the KV to spin the same prop at the same rpm as the 10 cell setup there isn't much that changes in the feel. I have hundreds of flights on the 12s setup, and the power output is no different as well as the torque. Heck if anyone wants to try the 12 cell setup and has there model setup for a Q80xs let me know. I'd be more than happy to let you see what you think.
