Second rendition of my 7HV. Newservos, new speedo, new FBL controller. Should feel much different in the air!

Well there's lots of extra height below 6S packs so I would say for sure.
With some I could even see 12S2P fitting, though it'd weigh a ton.

I've not seen the 7S packs. There's extra room as stated. What motor is suitable for 14S?

I know the team pilots have said the gear can take all the power possible, but I am not sure. Whenever I've done rainbows with hard stops, it seems it can be really stressful on the drive.

14s will be the future,once affordable. Some are already doing it. Maybe 14s 4000 packs? Right now, it would cost a small fortune. One can dream!

Also, I think that Kyle dahl's Logo xXTreme was on 14S at IRCHA?

Scott, that wiring is a great idea. I think I'll follow suit.

My pic's in post 4 show this on my 7Hv
The Logo pic was just a good example

As long as everything reaches it works good and is clean without any excess added wire.

It is a limited edition HeliJive that they sold at 3D Masters this year. They only made 40 pieces.
It has a clear case so you can see all of the components inside.

Work in progress but wiring is final :-)
This frame is perfect for some very clean wiring plus it has lots of room to work.

Hey Gimpy (Scott?),

Does your series connection cause issues with Cell count? I hope not because it's the smartest way I've seen to do this.

Scott is correct
Does not cause any issues no, you would need a serious run of wire to have enough voltage drop to affect cell count.
If you mean it only see's 6 cells then 12 no as well. You have to connect the second pack to complete the circuit.
