Ion 11s Report.

[epc2]

Hi Guys,

I got My Powerjazz last week and tried 11s 3700 on my Ion Today Geared at 10:1 with the Single Stage and Actro 32-3.

I dialed down the ESC to 74% to get a H/S of 2020 , and man can you say power , the governor worked really well , the bad news is that I puffed one of my 5s1p 3700 packs :dontknow .

I think this a sweet setup cuz it weights a litle bit less than a 10s 4350 and you can fly for 5 1/2 minutes no problem.

Chuck, I thought the 32.55 was only rated for up to 10s.

epc2, any idea what caused one of your 5s1p Evo20 packs to puff?

Cheers,

Shawn,

The Governor worked really well like the 55-10-32.

TomC, I sent a pic to Will and he said that it looked like a pouch seal problem.

Yes it is either a pouch seal or pouch corrosion problem which is rare, and that is fully covered under warranty, no questions asked. It can happen. The pack will be replaced ASAP.

Thanks guys,

Anyone tried a Hacker 77 heli esc on 11s?

Chuck, since I have a couple of spare Hacker 77 heli escs, I may just give this a try!

Flew the Ion X again today with 11s and had a blast , In conclusion I'll never fly a machine of this size on 10s again , my last set of 4350's will be replaced for 11 & 12s packs.

The powerjazz is working very good , I still need to do some tweaking with the Governor but it's a nice esc for sure.

Ok well when Tim gets this kit released with all the goods from the get go including all the recent mods I'll grab another one and go 12S, I do hope they don't sit on this forever though, I agree Ed, it is not a 10S machine imho either,,, but hey just imo to :D

[TomC]

Ya, 12s with a belt drive is going to be aussume! I can hardly wait to give it a try sometime this year. In the meantime, I'm still having a lot of fun on 10s and it is nice to be able to share packs with my 10s Trex600.

Cheers,
