Default logo 600se PSQ

Hi Everyone,
I just acquired a logo 600se!!!!,
the idea of using 2 battery packs for one single flight dissuaded me a bit so as a trade off I want to get the longest possible flights....
My flying style is big aerobatics and soft 3D so I am aiming to a HS between 1200 to 1600.
I will try using 6s or multiple packs for ease of sharing with other models.
I am also trying to get a deal on a Jive HV 80....
I thought of 3 possible setups:

6s - 4000mah (or X2 8000mah ?)
560kv motor - 12t pinion
Throttle 75%: 1275rpm

12s - 4000mah
450Kv motor - 10 or 11t
Throttle 30-40%: 1200 .........NOT sure about this calc

12s - 4000mah
330kv motor -11t
Throttle 60%: 1261rpm
(MrMel HScalc)

Now, What configuration will give the longest flight?
Assuming that the Kontronic esc can handle low Throttle, will the battery last longer in a config where the throttle is low (30%) compared to one with highter throttle setting (75%)?
In other words, is more efficient to run a low Kv motor at high throttle or a higher Kv motor at low throttle?

Is there any other Esc that can cope with low throttle setting without blowing up?

Thanks for sharing any of your thoughts

Luca

Want something really smooth and powerfull, try my setup.

4035-330 on 12s
(2) 6S 2650mah Turnigy Nanotechs in series
Castle 80HV
Western Robotics BEC
15 tooth pinion
690 Radix mains, 110 on tail

Lightweight, great tooth engagement with 15T and flies 8 min at 1650. ESC at 98% results in 1850 rpm. Because its 12s, amps are low so you can use the cheaper 25-50C batteries.

Been flying it with this setup for over a year and a half trouble free.

I might try your config using an 11 or 12 t pinion to get 1200-1400 HS
Would you trust the CC esc to stay below 50% throttle setting?
