Upgrading to 5S, need some help.

[Eggy]

Wired it up to the end of the harness close to the packs and taking voltage from both packs, checked the voltage with a voltmeter and getting 6V so should be fine.

Had some runs last night with the new props and 5S.

4S Lipo ,Stock Prop - 37.5Mph
4S Lipo, X640 - S/B - 40.3Mph
4S Lipo ,X642 - S/B - 41.0Mph
4S Lipo ,X642 - S/B/D - 41.5Mph

5S Lipo ,X642 - S/B - 46.2Mph
5S Lipo ,X640 - S/B - 48.4Mph

All the temps are good, ESC peaks around 104F, Motor 95F, Lipos 90F

Can this be right that i'm getting Higher speeds with the X642 then the 640 on 4S but the other way around on 5S, did try the 642 last on 5S so could be that it will be faster with some freshly charged packs, what do you think?

Will try to play with the angle of the strut / COG in some days, 50Mph Club Next

i run 5s rhino 4900 packs 2s balanced to weight of 3s pack. I have NO GPS but 45+ mph is deffo achievable. BTW you will not want to run 4s after trying 5s... its a big difference. NOW them rhino packs the wire is VERY thick make sure you have a very good solder iron to get the deans on. i get about 10 mins run times

As you see above, everything is fixed now. 45Mph was a walk in the park, did 48.4Mph with no strut adjusting or COG moving. So will be doin 50Mph+ when i'm done playing with the Strut and COG.
