Large E Power set up

New to GSN!
I am new here but have been all electric for a while, I don't claim to know it all but if anyone has any questions, I will do my best to answer them!

My current large set up is a Hacker A100-8 spinning a 28x10 xoar prop, with a Castle 160 HV2 on 12s 10k. Flying a 26 lb 96 inch wing Sbach profile. Its a huge floater!!!

Awesome!

I have a question...Do you know of a good 12s power system for a 3D plane that would weigh around 13 pounds. I would like to use 2 6s 4000s.

Maybe not as large as you meant but it would be awesome to use the same packs on a 78'' as the 60'' planes.

Joe I think I am going to do just that. I am having a ball flying my 60" Laser and am going to stand by until EF makes the larger one that some are talking about. In the mean time I am looking at as many posts as I can to get info. I am going to order a Gecko 120HV for the Black Friday sale but I think from the numbers I have run 12S 3,300 works out pretty good. Lets stay in touch on this.
