        I run 2650's on my Atom and the same on the 6HV.

        However I keep separate paired packs for this as I was advised not to swap back and forth between running them as 6S then 12S.

              ok, ideal, so the 6hv will take several sizes then, think i will go for 3000 for longer flights :tennis:

                Also bear in mind that 3000mAh is about the sweet spot for the Atom (especially if you are using a full size tail servo) 2650mAh tend to be a bit on the light side for good CG imo.

                    I would be inclined to run a better servo on the tail but see how you get on first.

                    Have fun with the 6hv, it's a real gem of a heli. I give mine a good workout and been faultless.

                      is the 620 not good on the tail then? im far from 3D flying, will be hovering and FF, yes the 6hv wont be untill after christmas but thats the plan anyway

                        You mentioned 610 in your post, that's a cyclic servo

                        620 should be ok :-)

                            I agree with Brian

                            I use 2650's in the 6HV and they are fine but if I was starting fresh it would be 3000 that are my choice for both the Aton and 6HV

                            There is a great sticky on helifreak, 6HV forum about battery compatability

                            All the best, you'll love the 6HV
