500 > 520mm blades/pinion question

[dannylightning]

I run my 15t pinion at 88% most of the time. and flip to 92% when i am in the mood. more fun but slightly shorter flight times.

So 85% on a 16t should give you good head speed and descent flight times i would think.

With a 15t and 85% i can get about 6 min but the head speed is just a little too low for my liking. My guess is 5-5.5 min with a 16t and 85% throttle.

I would probably go with 4.5 min on the first flight and see how much juice u got left

Before the ship hit the dirt, I was seeing 5 min 30 sec sport flying with V1 500 blades on a 3900mAH pack (probably some crap make, unnamed), running 16T at 85% ungoverned.

Just bought myself a couple of Gens Ace 4000 packs, broke them in, and some Gaui 520 blades and all tia other gear.

Tell you what lads, I've been without the Gaui for over a week now and it's killing me.

Happy flying fellas.

I'll be back in the air on Wednesday.

Hey MiXiN I have been researching for pinions too and I thinks this one will fit

Thanks Sjmt.

I always buy from Fast lad. They're great to deal with.

When I place my order, I'll be sure to buy that pinion and report back.
