BATTERIES AND CHARGER
For a brushless motor installation, a 5S battery confi guration
can be used as an economy setup for moderate power and
extended fl ight time. A 6S battery confi guration can be used
for better performance at a cost of fl ight time. For a 5S battery
confi guration, one 3200mAh 11.1V Lithium Polymer battery
pack and one 3200mAh 7.4V Lithium Polymer battery pack
will need to be connected in series. Two 3200mAh 11.1V
Lithium Polymer battery packs need to be connected in
series to create a 6S confi guration. Order numbers for the
