Sounds great, Shannon! I guess I’ll pull the 4020-1200 off the OFH order I’m preparing for the sale.

Well guys, I have even better news.   :)

After talking with XNova further, they are making a new motor for us that will be a 4020-1350kv with a 32mm shaft and a full length flat spot.  Basically, this motor is designed specifically for the new 516.

I should have them in stock before IRCHA.

That is great news,

I'm liking the Xnova motor in my 766 and will get one for my 516, when they come.

The XNova 4020 1350kv motors are here!

They will be available on the new site as soon as we go live with it.

Wooohoooo!
Are they the same watts and amps as the 4020-1200kv?

I'm waiting for exact specs from them, but when we originally talked about them, the specs were slightly better.  My guess is they will quote them the same as the other kv's.

Short question....
What do you guys think about an 5000mAh pack in the 516?
Im planning to get one with a light Hobbywing 100A ESC.
Has anyone tested a big pack on it?
The reason is that i have this packs already from my E5 and wanna use this if its possible.

How heavy are your 5000s? The pulse 4500 is 650g. My gens ace 5000 45c are 710g.

I think it'll depend on your flying style. If you need the utmost precision in crisp 3d, lighter packs may be desirable. I'm no slouch on the sticks, but surely don't need cutting edge performance, so I'm going to stick with my 5000s, especially if there's a stretch down the road.

@Rob Cherry,
The prototype 516s look like they're using standard MKS servo arms on cyclic.
Is the cyclic setup compatible with the CF arms that Matt includes in the kits for the bigger helis?
