I am interested in what the balance point should be for an stock SV27 and if anyone is using a modified set up whether they have altered their balance point??
Thanks,

The finger test is not accurate.
I can hold my 130degF packs in my hand, where as the next person might find that really hot.
I can tell you though if you are running only half mill and 5 laps with final complete the course (so 6, 1/2 lasps total) with the 8XL and 440/3 prop, with packs fully charged and warmed in sun a bit, you will not be getting over the temps. You will be between 120 - 130 at the worst.
Ive run a bigger heavier mono hull with 4500mAh packs and a hotter motor and larger prop and i was not over the temp limit.

Are you running Deans Plugs
Get rid of them and run 5.5 bullets
Make sure that the soldering is good and no dry joints...
I have never experienced a pack drain more than the other, and i have also run 2x 2s packs to make 4s, and in much hotter setups than an 8XL, so my suggestion would be to try the plugs first.
Getting rid of that y-harness...
How many laps did you do to get them that hot... Its really odd
