To DS, or not to DS. That is the question. 'Tis nobler to try and crunch, than to woos on the front. (Or just fly combat.) Yea, the vision gained in folly shall set us on the right path to DS bliss. Veni, Vidi, Crunchi (a.k.a. - been there, done that - Vortex - soon to fly again.)

Pat, I use Duralites on my giant scale birds. They work great except for several things: NO fast charging, you have to use their charger (12v), you cannot pull more than 2A per cell or they die, and if you discharge them too much they are dead (leave the switch on for a paperweight). They
