New E5 Owner
« on: January 06, 2017, 02:40:00 PM »
Hello All, 

 My name is LaDedric and have an E5 in route from AMain.  This will be my first large scale heli build, so let me apologize now because I am sure I will be asking some of the same questions others have asked.  I will continue to use the search engine but I would like to get a more recent thought or two on the subject.    My plans are to build my E5 with the E5s 600mm extended kit (yet to be ordered).  I am now at the point of picking and motor, ESC, batteries, and BEC.   

Please allow me a second to give a public thank you to Greg Jackson for his encouragement and help so far via e-mail.  I have been impressed with the time and support I have received from him.

What would you suggest for a starting setup for an E5s, the 606 or 626 blades? I would like to get at least a 4 plus minute mild 3d flight time if possible?  Can I use the popular 4035-560 motor or an I missing something?

If u r running 12s u should get good flight times on either of the blades.. I run 606s but on 6s.. it gives a nice light feel but my times are 3:30 a 4...

Hi,
I'm running the scorpion 4035-560 on 12s with 2x 3300 45c lipo flight packs and 626 mains in my E5s. I'm getting 5 minutes of sport flight and a little 3D at 2250 headspeed. Landing with 30% in the packs.
Its an awesome heli.

Wolf51 Thank you!  Which pinion are you using?
Using 13 tooth pinion, could go up to 2350-2400 headspeed with it (according to headspeed calculator) but am happy at 2250 right now.
I also fitted the 12/54 tooth tail speed up gears which takes tail ratio from 4.0:1 to 4.5:1,  using 96mm Rails on the tail and its rock solid!

Hate that I just saw this. School started back this week so things were hectic, but really glad you found the forum. I'm not too far away so let me know if you need any help!
