| SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 02-May-08 11:19 |  | | Views : 774 | | I don't mind crashing, but I hate it when it happens 2 minutes into your first flight and you have nothing else to fly. The white blob is the LiFe battery pack. Airframe weighs 12.3 oz, AUW was 13.7 oz on LiPo 640 mAh but is now 17 oz with 1100 mAh LiFe. |

| SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Build | 01-May-08 20:05 |  | | Views : 801 | | The correct batteries for the Tyro have finally arrived! No data yet on the increase in wattage and AUW, but they do weigh over 3 oz more than the tiny LiPo packs I was using. Max charge rate is 8C but 5C (5.5 Amps) is recommended. |
| SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 01-May-08 15:47 |  | | Views : 792 | | The third flight I tried to do more runway passes but the wind was up to about 2-3 MPH and was shifting directions. I dipped a wingtip into the ground and broke the motor mount. A little CA got me in the air again but the wind got the better of me again. |
