Real life with the Ion-X - video shot 5-9-04

[WillJames]

Shannon continues to fly his Ion-X a bunch and we are trying to share as much as we can. The first flight is using TP 7600mah 5s4p packs that weigh 3pounds 10 oz per pack. After you see the first temperature readings in the video he is using 5s3p 6000mah packs at 2 pounds 13oz each, on their first charge, saving 12 ounces overall weight. :)

Stay tuned, if you have Ion-X requests please let us know. :D

**New clips are uploaded. Check out this clip now!! :D

These clips have been remastered to include more flying with the 6000mah packs including a bunch of full power climbouts at different headspeeds used, etc. The new files will be rendered and posted by 2PM EST today.

Thank you!!




Enjoy.

baja/shannon,

Can you share with us what the conclusion now is between 3P versus 4P in regards to flight time/performance? From what Chris at MA says 4P is the best pack to use. Do you conclude differently?

Wasn't too clear in the video about the conclusion.

Thanks,
bob

That ion-x rocks. I want one now. By the way are you going to bring it to clints this weekend

[WillJames]

I don't think Shannon will be coming down to clints. :(

Sorry.

[Shannon Davis]

No real conclusions on the packs yet-- You can deffinatly feel the weight difference, but both packs have good power. I think it will come down to hard flying for 10 min vs 6-7 min.
