Earlier in the month we wrote about the thread on Helifreak.com that covers the first (that we know of) conversion of a Blade 450 from stock 3s LiPo to a higher-voltage 6s configuration. Here are the specs again:

  • Blade 450
  • Scorpion 1630kv motor
  • CC ice lite 50
  • 2 Gens Ace 25c 1000mah packs run in series
  • 15 tooth pinion (modified)

Well, this week the moders are still at it and have released a flight video. The description on the Youtube video says:

"Blade 450 running on 6S setup. 25+ mph wind gusts and a crappy camera = bad wind noise, but still plenty of fun flying."

While this is true, viewers can still get a good impression of the difference between the higher-voltage 6s setup and the stock 3s. At one point in the video the pilot puts the Blade 450 through some medium speed tic-tocs with no observable bogging in the head/motor.

Pretty impressive.
