you can get packs just as powerful for half the price and they wont puff

FlightPower packs, or what is your opinion ? I need alot of power, because brushless truck is heavy car. 2 x 3S packs would are better choise than 1 x 6S, because they are easy to handle and sell. I don't find any LiPo packs wich are better and half of maxamps price...

from reports the zippy ones are much better (and less than 1/2 the price) than maxamps... personally im going to try them as i cannot afford a $250 lipo... esp cause im just bashing around.

i have heard good things about zippy. another cheaper cell is true rc.

E-Revolution 08.02.2008 06:15 AM

They are giving 100A constant, other batteries like FlightPower is giving 125A and Maxamps 160A constant. I don't know is that 100A enough for truggy..

one thing to remember is that maxamps overrates thier packs

E-Revolution 08.02.2008 01:31 PM

Okay. So I should try Zippy. I dont think that its bad choise.

azjc 08.02.2008 01:43 PM

want to go cheap you can go with Zippys ( make sure they are the "R" cells) and True RC

E-Revolution 08.02.2008 02:39 PM

I can buy any LiPo:s I want to buy, but if I go Zippy, I will test them . If they are not good enough, I will sell them to Finnish racers ( 3S LiPo:s are hot stuff for 1:10 car drivers in Finland ) and I buy some new batteries, like FlightPower packs.

If the MMM is not coming in good time, is those MGM controllers good enough ? I had a 16016 and 16018, and they were working fine.

I got my X1CRT Pro in yesterday, and now I have been make some little mods. I cut the radio tray plate to half and fixed it, now there is only mounting for steering servo.

I did use 4 zippy H and 4 Zippy K battery, there are good to go. Just be carefull about cells balancing, in early use the might be unbalanced like mine were.

E-Revolution 08.09.2008 07:17 PM

Yeah, I know it. Balancing is very important part of LiPo batteries operating, its bad thing if cells are not balanced good enough or right, they can puff if doing it wrong.

I got my batteries to Finland from Honkong, and they are waiting in the custom house ( dam those payments ) . I will get those LiPo packs and charger in monday.

tc3_racer_001 08.09.2008 07:23 PM

which batteries did you buy? id be interested to hear your opinion on them when you use them!

E-Revolution 08.10.2008 06:32 AM

Zippy-H packs, 5000mAh 11.1v 20C. I will give some information when I get them from custom.
