  • Well that certainly answers the question I had. Just curious - what was the combined weight of the two batteries?

        My HobbyStar 5200 are just over 1200 grams paired.

          Do you have a link? They are heavier than mine on Amazon. What is your C rating?

            They are 45C. They are both around 610 grams each.

            • I worked on mine. Foam filler at the fuse junction, sanded wet with 2000, then repainted white with acrylic (paint for kitchen and bathroom from DIY store, 2 light layers with sanding in between). Silver is from foam paint can, grey is from Zero Paint color
              Callie graphics almost done. As the original plane is not exactly the same as the AL37, I need to adjust my (bad) work with the decals and I recontacted Callie. But my work does not do justice to Callie's work.

ID:	236489 Anyone found a close paint match for the white on this one? Even after being ridiculously careful I've got some touch up to do after removing the masking tape. It's not too bad but I need to deal with it.

                    I have found the paint out of the factory to be terrible. I re-sprayed it. I would mask off your gray on the belly and repaint it.

                                        • I was going to wait a few days due to the humidity levels but the warm garage made up for it and I was itching to apply the graphics, but I will wait for a few days before I apply the clear.
