my son and I have a couple of storchs we recently built. I built mine with the power pack c and 2200 mah battery while my son used his old parts from another plane he had which has a 4023 870kv motor and a 5000mah battery. We took them out this morning to do our first flights, the wind was around 10 - 15 mph which seems normal here, we dont get many calm days. My plane did great for 2 whole minutes cuz thats how long the battery lasted (i had to keep it at full throttle most of the time. Then the wind carried it off. My sons plane wouldnt turn right unless he cut the throttle, in which the wind tried to carry his away. Question 1, How windy is too windy for these planes?
2, What size battery could i stuff in my plane for longer flights? Larger motor and prop?
3, Is my sons motor too powerful causing it to not turn right?
