Our test model came out @52oz using the Hacker A30-10XL / and 10 RC2400 NICAD cells and had just over 1:1
thrust to weight. Using LiPoly our test model came out at 43-45oz and had a thrust to weight ratio of 1.3:1
If you are an e-flight propeller head and you just can’t help yourself but to mix and match ratios / motors / props you’ll find
