Confirmed the 1920kv with 9 blade fans. I will do a bit more research and pull the trigger on the upgrade. Appreciate the information.

Looking for some help. New to the larger scale jets so I'll try to keep it detailed and brief. I bought a used Mig, now that I have more experience and ready to fly.. I'm having an electrical issue.
Looking over the jet it seems the previous owner or owner before him, bypassed (cut and taped off) the servo/receiver power leads coming from one the the batteries. He said he was powering the receiver and servos separately using a 2200 or 2100 life battery. The issue is that whenever I plug the battery in no matter where, it drains or will drain within a few minutes. I basically go from 100% to about 50% within a minute. Using a Meter to watch it drain. Batteries are brand new. Do I tap a ubec into the original connections or is there a way to power the servos separately?

How much do you trust the electrical savvy of the previous owner(s) who installed the modified system? It's easy to make a mess of electrics if you don't know what you're doing.

We can't really tell you what's wrong without seeing how your plane is now wired and where you are plugging the LiFe. Stock you had two ESCs and each had it's own battery connector. Off one of the battery connectors you had a BEC as well as the ESC main wires. If the person simply cut the BEC wires it should all work with the LiFe being plugged into the receiver. To be safe I would also remove the red wire from both ESC signal leads.
If you are draining the LiFe that fast something should be getting hot too.
