Do you have a watt meter? If you're going to be flying electrics a watt meter is a must. It takes all the guess-work out of your setup. They're not very expensive at Hobby King. If I remember correctly, my 5s setup was just over 1100watts. Your Telemaster would never need that kind of power, I don't think. I'm thinking a 40A or 45A might be enough.
I am sorry if I misled you . I had dual sky 70 in it.with the 80 amp esc 5000 mah battery.
LOL
Ever seen a Telemaster go vertical Haha.
I had to fly it 1/2 throttle to get 9 minute flight
