recall I did similar.... I did not know at the time that when I blew through all my new 9450 and am using the cheap 9443 models from ebay since.... so my 2# load would not lift..... bet it would with the higher thrust OEM ones, but, alas, they are too expensive for my taste so I now use the cheap lower thrust ones.... but I digress...
I would be concerned Gerry doing that since from my experiment, it seems that you either get idle speed or max thrust full speed; nothing in between when strapped down. This means you pull 30 amps from battery instead of holding amps nominal of 16-17amps... I would be worried about overheating motors, ESC, and battery since you will not be able to modulate current to something reasonable....
The battery, the ESC, and the motors are not rated for this 30 amp current for the 6 minutes they will run! They will likely overheat and something fail.
Be careful or just turn and idle - that 12 amps w/o lifting will deplete the 5ah battery still in about 35 minutes and not hurt anything in the process.....
