Hi again , the beast got a make over.
80 amp esc , a re wire and a 6s 5000mah lipo. and a slap up canopy to get it flying.
3 flights has it 90% tuned . the extra power and mass are notable .
Flips and rolls are sharp and clean , still has a little prop wash and i do not like the fpv cam mount , It harmonics with the frame and seems to have a heart beat at specific throttle points When i have that sorted i will post a flight on YT.
Cheers
