Hyperions new g3 lipo's
 
I need a battery for my losi 8t 2.0 truggy.I check out the hyperion site
and found a heperion lvz 4s 30c 5000mah 14.8 v at 135 continous amps.
Will this work ,this is my set up.MMM combo 2200 kv.I know the combo
is rated for 120 amps,will this battery be to much for my setup?

Here's my 2 suggestions if you want to get the new Hyperions

5500

6500

EDIT: By the way, you can never have too much battery amperage available. More than enough equals cooler batteries.

Yes Dirtdiver, get the G3 packs, I have a 6s 4200mah 35C pack and it knocks the $#!t out of your @$$.

Get the 6500mah pack, IMO, should provide you with 20+ mins of hard bashing or racing. You won't believe the power from these things, your 8T will come alive. GUARANTEED! :rules:

I know the higher the amps the cooler the battery will be,but the higher the amps,
the higher the price.Trying to save a little money for other things, but can i get away
with a 5000 mah 30c battery,and still run a cool setup?

FYI, the LVZ 30C pack is not a G3 pack. The G3's currently only come in CX (25C) and VX (35C).

The VZ Hyperion is the old gen packs, which you can get for some steal deals from aircraft-world.com on the 'clearance' items. Definitely good packs, but in the long run, you are better off getting the G3 35C packs, actually underrated relatively compared to the 'old' C ratings, they can be charged 5C (have done so myself), and they claim that the G3's last 4x longer (cycle life).

But if you want to spend a little less get the VZ 4500mah 5s pack, and gear it lower than you would with 4s, will run great! They are $114 right now!

The voltage is fine for a MMM and the C rating of a lipo can never be too high.

With the 35-43C lipos out now will I notice a big difference between them?

Absolutely! Your wallet will have a gaping hole in it! :surprised:

The 5S 4400mAh PolyRC is $269.95.

A 5S 4200mAh Hyperion G3 VX is $165.95.

That's a huge difference for an additional 8C and 200mAh more capacity.

Jarvis 08.13.2009 04:21 PM

I understand you perfect! That is why I plan to run the G3s and your price comparison was the reason for my question.

You will not be disappointed.:smile:
