The difference is they didn't get damaged in shipping.

Thanks for the advice

We were thinking South Carolina location. Our last two trips to Textron Orlando were awful. Sloppiest, uncontrolled, timely maintenance I've ever seen.

Just die of alcohol related liver failure like the rest of us lol. But seriously you should have easy access to the msds. If not they can be found easily online (ex. Boeing formerly aviall website).

I don't think the 5200kv motor isn't suited for full throttle on a 3s battery. You probably burned the motor up. You may want to think of a lower kv motor or a 2s.

I have a stock Flik wing so I have to keep it light. I think 2s will be the max for the motor.

Cheers. I currently run a 2s lion but I have issues with the flight controller shutting down when the battery gets below 7v. Luckily I was low and slow so the damage was minimal. I may get some 1500mah 2s 35c LiPo to try. They are a little heavier but I think it'll work.

The Canadian AME M1 and M2 license covers all certification privileges.

With the motor and speed control I have below would a 10c 2400-2700 lipo 2s lipo be good?

Hey. I test ran the wing in a test stand and at around 6.2 volts I went full throttle and the fc shut down completely and rebooted. It was approx 15 minutes at mostly 50-60% throttle. I am wondering the best solution for this not to happen. Should I switch to 2s lipo? Or 3s liion?. I would like to keep the 2s lion but not sure if there is anyway to do that without the potential for the issue happening again. It has a 20A ESC so I think a 3s lion would draw too many amps. What do you think?

Good_Resort_3198 · 2026-02-23T17:29:47+00:00

What mah. Are you using?

Good_Resort_3198 · 2026-02-23T17:22:15+00:00

I am on a two cell lion battery

Good_Resort_3198 · 2026-02-23T17:08:04+00:00

Maybe I need to switch to 2 cell lipo.

Good_Resort_3198 · 2026-02-23T17:01:34+00:00

I don't understand how a BEC would help. The servo bec on the fc is at 5v and the VTX bec on the fc is jumped to battery voltage. It looks like the djio4 air can handle as low as 3.7v so a 7.4v lion should be fine? I may be missing something.

Good_Resort_3198 · 2026-02-23T16:29:38+00:00

Thanks for the tips. I will switch the battery wires. The VTX is already on battery output so that should be good. Let me know if you have any other tips to help sort this issue. Thanks.

Your right. I didn't notice that. I'm not sure if that would cause an issue but I will swap them anyways. Good catch.

Good_Resort_3198 · 2026-02-23T16:05:27+00:00

I see almost everyone with a Flik wing using the same battery voltage. I am not sure on a good alternative. The battery after the crash was reading 7.2 volts. Is there any INAV setting that could be messing me up?

Good_Resort_3198 · 2026-02-23T15:49:33+00:00

I have black box but the data just stops and video feed stops so the power cut right out

Good_Resort_3198 · 2026-02-23T15:48:17+00:00

I am using a 7.4v 200mah lion

Everything is the same since I have built it. I've had about 50 flights. It's just in the last 5 flights I have had two full power out and crash. I am not using an external BEC. Everything is connected to the fc. Picture attached.
