In the manual they give you a measurement for the wood tray for where to put the end of your battery. I stuck my 4000 6S pack right on the mark, did a quick and dirty CG check using my fingers and the X on the bottom of the fuse, and sent it! There will be no CG drama/controversy on this one!

6 cell batteries are difficult to fine in my home town in Durban South Africa. Your advise would be appreciated Gretel.
I have previously used two 3 cell 3300mah batteries in one of my war birds with no issues as well.

I normally run a 5800 and I know guys run 6200's up there. If you've got some heavier or bigger capacity packs remember that you can remove the weights hidden up in the nose cone and enjoy the extra run time.

Strange dip in my RCVR voltage from BEC.
See telemetry screens below with same LIPO?????
It seems to me that BEC of my ESC has an random issue only whit my CNHL blacklabel 6S5000 65C no1 ????????
With other LIPO's i didn't sse this issue very strange........
I got an reply from a Dutch college on fromum in The Netherlands and he said that voltage measurement is done digital in RCVR,
it seems to be done in steps of 0,11 volts...he said to me seeing my data.
i was a bit blinded during this, never saw it before ore didn't check it before will look into my old data.
Also I received today my Airspeed sensor and tested that also this afternoon.
Airspeed with Rhino LIPO downwind in a dive is 79 KTS= 146 KmH.
I checked also stall speed without flaps and with flaps 25 KTS=46.30 KmH
My airspeed warning is set to 52 Kmh ore 28 KTS.
Just a nice future to have.

After reading some of the post here, where guys are having problems with the gear is the reason I used a Tri. harness for the gear and now have completely got rid of the MCB (BB) I also separated the steering from the rudder they both have individual trims and I can adjust the steering with the Rnob on my DX8 with out having to adjust it from underneath manually. I just ran it down the runway adjusted to run straight and true. I can also make the steering less sensitive by lowering the travel for that channel. works great

Maiden flight tommorow I'm cg the plane 1/3 mac which is slightly after of cg mark on 4000 gear up with gear down it shifts to cg mark which is not 1/3 mack with 6000s I have to push bat back to blue box
So 5000s should be a little foward of that
But it's not at the recommended video settings
Anyone else have this issue?

Depends on the actual battery in use. I fly with a RoaringTop 6S 6250 35C. At first I had it pushed all the way back to the blue box. After taking the 3 oz of dead weight out of the nose, I now have it at the very front of the battery bay. CG is about 5mm back from the mark and flies fine there.Pat

Yup I flew a 5000 about a quarter in from blue box .... No trim needed no flap to elevator mix needed either
My aerolines are on second hole from top along with elevator high rates 100 percent
Great roll rate slow speed with flaps was walkable
Flew with tanks on
I kept it flat on approach it's a floater any alpha it can stall and tip a wing all be it not severe
The aoa was fine keeps it on runway after set down
200 ft takeoff no flaps
Next time out I'm trying it with no tanks
Puts my f86 to shame .... You think it would be the other way around
3.5 minuteflight time admiral 5000 20 percent left mixed throttle

After removing the nose weights, my T-birds has become even more lively. I can almost hold knife edge now

Freewing 80mm T-33 Shooting Star Both models for banner.jpg Motion RC is excited to announce the new Freewing T-33 Shooting Star in 1/9.5 scale. Honoring the popular T-33 that flew with over 40 countries between 1948 and 2017, the Freewing T-33 faithfully represents this amazing aircraft! Constructed from EPO foam,
Takes about 20 minutes and is really easy to do. I fly with the same pack, and before I took the weights out I had it pushed all the way to the back of the battery area. After taking the weights out, I push it all the way to the front.Pat
