Awesome video!! That looks like a lot of fun. Must be a 12S setup. I have my Ion-X2 conversion on the way from MA :D, can't wait. Although my 12S setup will have to wait a little bit. For now I'm going with 10S 25C batteries.
Hope you keep the vids coming.

From memory, Bobby said he is running 17 degrees pitch!! 12s 5000mah made up of 2x 6s packs. CC 110 speedy, actro 32-3 motor, Vblades 710mm
The video doesnt do justice, when your are actualy there watching it carve up the sky, just blows you away.
I felt the motor when he landed, and surprisingly it was barly warm!
Gets about 4-5min flighttime flying like that.
cheers

From memory, the headspeed was 2100.
Not sure of the ratio, but I have no doubt that it will be available with the Ionx2 kit.
