    Asymmetrical battey placement

    If I want to install a 2S + 3S lipo for a serie total of 5S in the sponsons of a PB Mystic, what side sponson should get the heavier 3S batt? Is this at all possible, to have different weight lipos in a cat?

    I'm guessing for a boat that only turns right, it would go in the right sponson.

      Weight bias should go to the left side. This helps to counteract prop and motor torque, keeping the cat level at full throttle. Most of my cats have at least some left side weight bias.
