e-power for BUSA Northstar?

There's a YouTube video here (http://youtu.be/x5ag6SpPCn8) of Dave Flick's Northstar. In the commentary, he mentions that it's flying on 6S/5000 with a 100A ESC, and a 4025 1100Kv motor.

I'm looking to electrify my not-yet-built Northstar since I just sold off my .55ax on MCP. I've seen vid of a Northstar running a 4025 1100kV motor on 6S/5000 with a 100A Castle ESC. No mention of...

That does raise the question, however... what's everyone's favorite source for a 240 mAh 2S LiPo with that standard (but not JST-XH) balance tap...

I know, right? After I got over the shock of an ultra-micro that didn't come with a battery or charger, I couldn't figure out who to blame for ruining my early x-mas... Horizon/e-flite for putting...

Look at the new UMX Beast 3D at Horizon... they've pulled the battery and charger that usually come with the UMX planes from the box - I presume to keep the price down. With the gyro/stabilizer...

UMX Beast battery (EFLB1802S20): how to charge?

The battery for a UMX Beast is an e-flite EFLB1802S20. I broke their top-secret part numbering code to interpret that part number as a 180 mAh, 2-cell, 20C discharge rate LiPo.

Here's where I get...

Okay, an hour, my bench vise and a hacksaw have "fixed" the stock GWS motor. Flip the thing around, use the standoffs that come with the e-flite stick motor mount, and I'm back in business.

substituting much higher Kv motor?

In between 50cc gasser flights I've been fiddling around with a GWS Slow Stick. IMO, everyone getting into this hobby ought to build a Slow Stick and fly it until it's broken and needs repair. Then,...

Unknown/Unbalanced/OffBrand LiPos

I think the local club has me a bit paranoid of LiPo batteries - especially in the context of charging since a club member burnt his car up a while back...

Yep, that's the one with the EC3 plug. I know there's a mini-Molex on the AR.Drone battery, but what's the red plug on the Electrifly packs? How about a name or part number for the 1S connection (or...

WWI era - not GIANT, but not teeny park flyer?

I'm not happy with the size of the GreatPlanes or Horizon/Hangar-9 models of this era... is anyone doing a Blereot, Eindecker, etc. in the 48" class? Admittedly, I'm not a builder (and I'd like to be...

Remote field charging setup

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned the idea of a small generator to recharge the big battery each evening... One of the electric heli guys in our club packs his Honda genset around.
