hey vksy,

what is your setup? 3S or 4S? what motor and battery are you running? headspeed? etc...

Hey Toyturbo.... I know we have talked about this before but have we met?

Here's my setup toyturbo:

Motor: Hyperion 10T
Pinion: 24T
Battery: Hyperion 3700 mAh
ESC: Jazz 55A
BEC: Medusa 3.5A 6V
Cyclic: S3150
Tail: GY401 + S9650

I just set the timer to 7 minutes for each pack. The fully charged voltage was ~16.75 and ended at ~15.05 (~2.7A draw?). I flew alone, so I had to set the head speed by feel. High stick is 80% with a pitch curve of -10/0/10. The Lepton is a rocket at 4S. If the throttle were 100% with -11/0/11, this bad boy probably would not even break a sweat.

How come you are running a seperate bec instead of using the one in the jazz55?

I put the Viper carbon tails on and VIOLA my tail holds, a few tail slides today will be the sure winner to see if they hold. But mind you mine piroed at a hover, now it holds great!!! :glasses2:

Me happy again, Jeff :glasses2:

ToyTurbo,

You should come out to the park we fly at!
It is VERY close to you.
405 at Seal beach Blvd and go north to Lampson. Make a right on Lampson (east) and go about 1 mile and you will see a company on your left called West Ed. Just before that company is a gate on your left. Pull in there and you can miss us.

I would like to see you Lepton fly!!!!

Hey Bob, no I haven't met you yet, but we talked before about how you used to fly near my old school. Thanks for the invite but my lepton is still in the building stage, i still haven't made my final choice as to what motor/battery system I'm going with. I'm torn between the hyperion and hacker motors and weather I should run lipos or emolis.

The 55-6-18 comes with a 2A 4.8V BEC. The 55-10-32 which I'm using does not. Now that I've actually flown the Lepton, I highly recommend using a separate BEC. I can run 6V and still have full servo control for an auto should the ESC ever craps out.
