5s Zippys - 05.09.2009, 06:02 PM

I've now got three Zippy Flightmax 5s 5000 packs (the new 30c ones). I'm very happy with the performance and the price. One thing I've noticed though, they're consistently taking 4500-4600 mah of charge. Does this make them over-rated?

If you have your LVC above 3.0V thats why.


I will spank a nitro any day...guaranteed. :)

Ok, tell me this one, my lvc is set for 3.0v so my 5s pack runs down to 15v right? So, when I connect my Hyperion charger why does it trickle-charge up to 18v and then kick in to full charge?
