Looks like I made the right choice, it was perfect day for sailing down at Forcett Lakes, nice steady breeze blowing all day.
I am sick of telling you that no money changed hands, all you have to do is put out a high quality video. (Like mine)
P.S. Just to give you a better chance, I left my camera in the car today while sailing.
You don’t need to bribe Mr. Moose, Just put out a high quality video (like mine) and you too could get the weekly award.
For a change you are right Kermit!
The “REAL” sailors were sailing their scale boats around the canal today, while the “BLOATERS” were drifting around up at the jetty. (When they finally got there)
My little video from today,
David, Yes they are the correct cells but I use the Samsung INR18650-30Q they are 3000 mAh but are rated at 15 amp discharge where the Panasonic/Sanyo are only rated for 10 amps but are 3500mAh.
These batteries don’t have as big voltage sag on load like the Panasonics. (dropouts on take off!)
I wouldn’t recommend the Laptop batteries as they can’t deliver enough current.
I have a battery spot welder, so can make up packs for you.
Panasonic and Sanyo are the same batteries just branded under two different names.
Another option is to use a LiPo battery, 2S 1100-1500mAh
Now it all makes sense, I was trying to work out how you could change the outputs without plugging in the computer?
Well done, it could have been a much worse result.
