Hand Launch of an E-Flite Habu SS 50mm with 4s 2600 Li-ion Battery

That hand launch looked pretty easy. Goes good man!

[@NwRcFlight]

Yes. Very easy. He used about 75% throttle. I’d use more on my plane.

I tried a 4s/1300 on mine. Motor acted like it was gonna jump out the back of the plane!🤯

The cockpit has a sticker that specifies 3s on the stock motor. This plane was modified for 4s power with a QX-Motor 50mm 4000KV 12-blade fan from RC-Castle (bought two for $48) and used 4 P26 2600mah 18650 Li-Ion batteries. The Li-ion batteries are easier on the ESC.

How did you fit the battery in there? It barely has enough room for a 3s 2200.

@@brettschklar9947 It’s a custom built 4s Li-ion battery pack. It fits easily in the bay.
