Just been out and tried the new Maxpoly 6s 3000mAh Lipo in the 500 but the winds are terrible..

Not worth crashing in these conditions as its a lottery whether its gonna come home safe or not.

Despite the forecast from yesterday it cleared here today. So after watching the Moto GP from Jerez I packed up and went to the field. I was surprised I was the first one there but several others were not far behind.
Managed to do a couple of basic check flights with the Titan . before a little problem forced me to pack it up for the day. a few minor adjustments still needed and a few tanks of light work to bed the Hyper in.

Had a few tanks with the Rappy 30 and a battery with the Mini Titan.
All in all a good day .

One question for all you Hyper experts, after a couple of tanks the Titan was covered in oil, I havnt made any adjustments yet and it is running as delivered in the box. is this normal or would you all suggest running a little leaner now?

[Leebert]

How hot was the backplate of your motor?

[Leebert]

PS Very glad you have taken the Titan for a spin

How did you like it?

Hi Lee
It was good, I did no more than just hover and gentle close manouveres before I noticed a problem, but it is defo different than the 30. I will sort out the problem this week I hope and have a more testing flight next weekend. One thing I did notice, it uses about twice as much fuel as the 30, tank was empty in no time.
did you manage a day out today?

Good to hear the Titan is okay and flying well The 50s drink like a fish compared to the 30s. Especially if they are a bit on the rich side.

Mrs leebert and I had a great day with Paula having her first go on the 500 and loving it - Another model lost to the wife

Not so good was a mid-air at the field - see my other thread

Saw the thread Lee, wow what a disaster. Glad you both had a good day today.
