Well my good buddy if you have a Dr you PAY someone to do it! Get the point! :D I could care if you have a degree; but, if you did you would apply what you have learned.
Life is not full of common sense. However, it must be in this related field in not some GS field. You are saying common sense is bla bla bla. remeber you started the commen sense thingy. Also forget the, “becareful stuff”. I do not use that “stuff” here since it is not per boards rules, if you can read them, that could be mislead as a threat or some kind. As I will report this kind of post.
Ok-tt is basic fluids and thermo here. I took the class, passed it, & do this for a living. Do you?
I do not take knowledge form a “Mag drive pump data” chart using some values and apply this to any pump. This data is for a Mag drive pump and not a ASTM or SAE standard or spec. Again I could CARELESS that Mag drive derived some data for their pump. Is not set in stone nor is it 100% correct and only an approximation.
Ps. I do not have a Mag Drive pump. If I did, I could figure out more then any "graph". I could figure out mass flow rates, internal energy, KE and PE, work, heat, heat rates, flux, pressur, how much to run pump per minute, etc. But you all ready know that from your common sense......:joy:
PSS. If you know any Engineer english does not make money, MATH does. Read my bio!
But you do crap me up!

I have only done some 3d with gas and this is my first electric heli. I guess the Joker CX is the best out there but I will see. I had a hell of a time doing the cells.

I ordered another overflow today, but they say it may be 4 weeks before it will be available. Patience....
Thanks :)

I would say you could make one but, why make it when you can buy it! Also the first one will not come out pretty!

Round Two...:D
I say make it...
You have a Lifereef HOB overflow correct...?
With one 1" bulkhead off to one side of the outer box..??
Add another bulkhead...$5-$6 and a stand pipe (hdwr store stuff) and while it may not "double" your flow it will increase it significantly...
"Dr. M" may say you don't have enough "linear inches" but I'm betting "field experience" over "theory" that it will work...

Squidd- Just so you know I did not make the linear inches up and also I do not say hands down the thing will not / never work. I do however say what I did since many people try to run a tank with 1/3 the linear inches and it causes a complete nightmear. You just have to tweek the system more when you do not meet this requirement.
opps, I am running NiMH GP3300 (32 cells) and going to get Lipos when my taxes are in. the problem with Lops is the price. My 32 cells of Gp330 cost $170 and will get about 7 minutes of flying while Lipos are around $550 for 12 to 13 minutes.
I do have to go through the swash plate one more time before I finally fly this damn thing. Make sure the linkages are the correct length.
Here are some vids of what it can do (not me flying).
