Testing audi r8 cat ( see pag 6)

[JESTER]

Hi, how are u? The other day I finally tested my liner, with the leopard 5692 540kv, a regulator 280A and my 10s 5000mAh, after an attempt by a propeller with 57-60mm could hurt (the propeller is too small for the rating and the weight of the hull), finally mounting a three-blade 67mm i was able to reach 60km.
The problem is that even though it was all warm and not hot, two parcels marked by ZIPPY 3s swelled dramatically! The battery life also is not the best, I think yes and no 8 minutes. So let me know if you think I could do better using 12s and perhaps increase the capacity of each parcel up to 6000mAh clearly without compromising temperatures.
PS: after a four five fast laps, I could keep my finger on the motor for 10 seconds and no more (acceptable?)

Sounds like you over discharged the packs, or they are inadequate for the setup. It's a better 12s setup for sure.
