Where to get 10 cells battery packs?
 
Just wondering where would you buy 10 cell packs for a e-maxx? Would they even fit in with gorilla straps.

squeeforever 01.28.2006 01:08 AM

yea, they would fit but you would have to make them with 8 flat and 2 ontop

Mike can make you a few packs of the IB3800's.

anything is possible!

What do i need to put them togeather myself? I know i need the batteries. jig to hold them, wire, connectors and battery bars. I've tired to put them togeather before but solder did not want to stick to them so i'm guessing they weld them of some sort?

squeeforever 01.28.2006 12:03 PM

nope, just solder. you have to put a little on both the bar and the battery or it wont stick.

You also have to make sure you use a high enough wattage soldering iron. 60-100W should do fine

My soldering iron is cheap so it's probably not hot anough. Is there any good how to's on how to make a good battery pack?

This one would probably do what you need:

My soldering iron is 23W lol

just sand the ends of the batteries and the bars slightly, then use flux.

RC Fan 4 Life 01.28.2006 09:18 PM

What's the flux do?

markland556 01.28.2006 09:45 PM

allows solder to melt at lower temperatures and makes it stick to the surfaces. Its very hard and stupid to solder without flux (resin)

RC Fan 4 Life 01.28.2006 09:52 PM

Where can i buy flux? Do you mix it with the solder or what?

btw how do you charge a 10 cell battery pack? My chargers max is 8 cells

squeeforever 01.28.2006 11:02 PM

well i guess you wont be able to charge one.... gotta get a charger to charge them or reduce your cell count... if you get another i would recommend the astroflight 112dx.
