Just curious what size mah batteries bros are using on their 60 size slabs 6s set up? Are 3000 3s in series too small?

I run 4000mAh 6S on my 6lb 60 size. 3000mAh 6S on my 5lb 50 size birds. I'd probably get 4000 3S to pair up.

Agreed. I don't have a 60 size slab on E anymore, but have had several 60" 6S fatties, and a 6S 3700 works great there. On my Stix50 6S setup, I'm finding that 3-3300mah range works well for about 5min of fairly hard 3D. My Stix50 weighs 5lb6oz with 2 3300 3S packs in series...

Thats a bunch,only in a pic could the truth be told,do look like all that flexing the tail would break off. How many lps of force to bend tail like that,i would guess 6 or 7lps.

I'm using 3300's in 50" and 60" birds.
Hoping they will work well in my new Flex Innovations Cessna 170.. 😁 😁

That would be cool! Those flex planes fly amazing! Reason I was asking is I’ve had 3s power for the Slick 46 UL in mind. I’m concerned my 2200mah 3s batteries wouldn’t be enough mah. Was thinking something useful for a larger slab in series could be a good option for single packs on the slick.

I had the same hope--I use 3S 2200's in my 43" Twisted Edge. On my 6S setup, they only got about 4min, and I puffed a couple of them. Not quite enough :(

Dirt piles are only dangerous when they are clearly visible from the top side of the plane. :unsure:

Looking at purchasing a couple 4000mah batteries for a MoAss 60. Based off thumbskulls recommendation, I’ve decided to stick with graphene batteries. I’ve had great luck with them so far. Zero swelling. My question- is there any reason I should get the 75c batteries over the 45c? If the 45c can deliver up to 180 amps, would there be any reason to go higher? Thanks-

They weigh more, that's how they get to 75C, and on a 6S setup on a 60 size, I'm only using a Talon 90 and have plenty of power. Unless it's just availability, no reason to spend more $$ and weight on the 75C IMO.

Picked up this MoAss 60 from bro kwj48s collection. Seems like the Talon 90 esc I installed doesn’t get a long well with the rim fire motor. So far I’ve tried low, normal and high timing. I get a screech when the throttle is quickly advanced with all 3 settings. Any recommendations on what I could try from here?

Smaller prop, see if it goes away. If it does, you are over amp rating.

What Thumbskull said first, or at the same time, look and see if the firmware in the ESC is the latest. I had one that started to do this out of the blue, it had been running fine. Updated the firmware and it immediately was cured and had tons more power. Don't exactly understand why things changed but a simple flash and it was all better.

The throttle is set to fixed end points at 100% . I turned the throttle response time down some and it cured the issue. Kinda blows doing that to an electric tho. Need to make a harness for 6s so I can hook my watt meter up although everything feels cool after a flight. I will try to update the esc as well haven’t tried that yet
