<DIV>On my e-planes, the landing gear plate is right where I would like the
batteries to sit so the choice is above or below the plate. I have not
tried below the plate yet so can't comment on that.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyone been successful at some other type of mounting approach? I
have thought about splitting the 5S packs and put one above and one below.
However, that seemed like a hard way to approach the test so did not try
it.</DIV>

looks like you're not getting any takers on this item. It seems <BR>logical
that anything of significant mass (batteries) should be close to the <BR>roll
center of the airplane, and I mount mine that way. I flew an Abbra for <BR>a
season with the batts centered and liked the way it flew. OTOH, several
<BR>folks have competed successfully with the Abbra with batts hanging low in
<BR>the cowl - so go figure.<BR><BR>Guess you'll just have to do the
experiment (and let us know what you
<BR>observe).<BR><BR>Earl<BR><BR><BR>----- Original Message ----- <BR>From: "J

Really low to really high? <BR>> Results? I've often though about trying
it, but new have. Just wondering <BR>> if anyone has...<BR>><BR>>
