Setup:
Actro Max 32-3

"Smooth 3D" flight since AT pack was new I took it pretty slow.
TP Flight was a bit harder.

So 8:30 vs 5:30 flight time and it looks like the power level was comparable. What's your impression so far, good, bad or too early to tell ?

[MrMel]

Im about to head out to the field today and will get two more flights with the AT, so I will report back later today.
They are heavier then TP, but poweroutput was equal + the flighttimes are nice and of course the "dont worry about timer" which means you get to use full capacity, and it dont matter if you fly hard or soft.

Excellent, thank you :noteworthy

The outstanding question is how they will hold up over time? What's the power like after 25 cycles, 50, 100 ? So I am looking forward to your comments and hope you can keep us updated as you get more and more flights on the AT pack.

Two more flights with Airthunder 5000 packs.
Flying style here was "Normal to hard 3D"...

Compared to flight with FP 5000 25C packs

Voltage under load is pretty much equal to both FP and TP.
(dont get fooled by "min voltage" on the graph since I run the AT until voltage drops.)
However, They are a bit too large for the Ion-X2 and unfortunally you can feel the extra weight since I run two packs it adds up pretty much.

Also, Ion-X2 has CG issue already with TP/FP 5000, with the AT its becoming an real issue.

I will try it in my E-Stratus running Neu 1915/1.5Y next.
