I am running a Neu 1512 2.5D, Tekin R1 Pro and two TrakPower 4900mAh (30C). The cells are awesome, 30C unlike the less powerful 5400mAh. I think being lower grip though Neo was kind. I have yet to try on a normal UK track.

Soon I hope
Aren't the 4900mAh Trakpowers 25C, not 30C? Though they, like all Flightpowers, have a 35C climbout and a 50C maximum discharge, so it's all good.

Having seen the Neo track I would say on a normal UK track, you won't be getting 20 minutes, though I could be wrong (it has been known ).

The fact that the Hyper 9 is light also helps, it's good to see someone run a PROPER set-up. Good quality batteries, fantastic motor, and a capable ESC, lovely.

You'll have to post some pics on here. What did you do for weight distribution?
