Hello,

I'm flying my lepton with the following setup:
Kora 15-12
Jazz 55-6-18
Hyperion 3700 4S (brand new)

I calculated that with a 20T pinion (i have one) i would have 2600 HS at 100% on the Jazz. This was done according to some other Kora user HS. In fact 2600 at 95% with the 15-14, 4S batt and 24T pinion. Or 3000 at 70% and 19T with 15-10 and 5S.

But i'm now using the smallest pinion (19T) and i still have around 2550 at 75%! I have a HS a lot faster that calculated with data from lepton fitted with 15-10 and 15-14 Kora motors.

I'm beginning to think that my 15-12 may be wrong labelled and is in fact a 15-10. Beside i don't have a very good power available. At the end of a 7min flight the batt temp is 27°C, motor temp 22°C with ambient temp at 14°C. So no overload apparently. I put back approx 2400 mA in the batts. But at 7min of flight HS is falling down a good bit at full pitch.

What HS are you guys running with your 15-12? Throttle % and pinion will be infos of great help.
