Re: Electric for large Planes

Thanks Jim, "fubar"and Rich. The simple answer is, therefore, 2S is two 
cells in series. I understand that! I also now understand 3P would be 3 
cells in parallel. But now you've gone and done it. You've confused me
with 
the 3S2P thing.

I think I'll go on a ultra serious hunt for more knowledge of electrics 
starting with batteries. That ought to give the motor manufacturers enough

time to try to agree on a some standardized terms to halt the confusion 
........... 'cuz I doubt that I'm the only dunce in the world.
