    What batteries were used for this? That thing is a beast for an all-electric plane.

    Did you fly it on a 72Mhz radio?

      72Mhz was never legal in Australia. We had to use 36Mhz and some still do. Now that just about everyone has jumped across to 2.4Ghz, it means the previously mandated narrow band frequencies are clear and clean.
