May i ask why you are going to use such a high C rating on the lipo?

Sure. I had 3S 30C 4200mA lion power lipo. As I said I lost my quad so I ordered new and mote powerful motors. I was looking for something 4S 5000mA at least 30C cause the new motors can reach 20 amps each. Then i find this 50C battery which was the cheapest. Today I ordered also optical flow sensor.
Ps: Thanks for reply. I thought someone would reply sooner.
I don’t know anything about apm ; including wiring. I am used to with naze/flip.

Hi Ruby, have you found out if APM 2.8 supports the optical flow?

I guess it supports. I am still waiting for the parts. I bought one from ebay for 15 $. Written for apm 2.6 but I will give a try.
