We fly every day in weather that sucks for batteries too. Vancouver Island British Columbia Canada. What we do is after the batteries are charged we keep them in a warm cooler. Then when at the field the batteries are about as warm as they come out of the plane used. Don't heat them up too much lowest setting on warm cooler. I have found that we can fly without power loss at -5 c
@Jays_rcgarage We found that the batteries lose power by the time we get them to the field get them on the dash and warm them up that's why I went with this little cooler bag. It's not a replacement for a LiPo bag. I'll leave a link for everything at the end of the video. Lol
The difference between 6s and 8s is efficiency. The 8s runs cooler and you can get longer flight times. You also get more torque to get out of sticky situations. 6s and 8s top speed are almost identical. For me, I think the advantage is negligible. Between the two. I'd rather buy them as an ARF plus and go with a 10s or 12s system running 2800 and 3200mah packs. The efficiency and power go way up with much less battery capacity and the packs are much more common and cheaper. You can do the same by just swapping to a lower KV motor and an ESC that can handle the voltage. You would only need a 60a to 80a ESC for 10s or 12s. The Amp draw is also cut almost in half, but the wattage is almost doubled. You should try it with one of your EDFs. You will be hooked like a bedded bass, Jay.
Nice flight, brother. I have the 8s I'm assembling now. I'm noticing the ball links seem a little questionable. Several are just not snapping on like they should. Did you notice anything like that? I ordered some higher quility ones from Motion Rc. Shoukld be here this week. PUMPED to fly her soon

Woah, This is a good tip! I may try that. I usually leave the car running and have the batteries on the dashboard till we are ready to fly

Dude I’m flying in Calgary and Minnesota . Are there designated landing areas there or just no on cares if you fly parks?

Yeah I am definitely going to give this a shot. Screenshot the comment. I just need to pick a Jet to do it on. lol
All those adapters!!😂😂😂 Looks really good tho!! These new schemes are awesome!!
I may get one, does it have a thrust reversing ESC?
That looks like a dam good plane!🔥🔥
Nice flight, brother.

Appreciate that! I didn’t notice any issues. Snapped them on and they seemed to be good. Good luck on the maiden bro! 🔥
Freaking beautiful…Great videos…👍🏻…😎
can i please have a jet?
Great video. You make me buy this one. LOL
Ciao
cool
That plane probably requires a hefty amount of altitude to recover from a stall.
With 8s will be more fly time and more power , only 8s need to buy with 5500 mah
Sono italiano
8 s is definitely better…..🇺🇸😎
👍👍👍👍
