does anyone use really big batteries?

[bl-is-future]

you dont have to buy there charger and balancer

[ReV:-O]

yeah apparently thunder power lipos are only compatable with thunder power chargers and balancers (they dont have a charger/balancer)

[bl-is-future]

lol no it is only because of the tap they use. you can get an adapter to use the Hyperion chargers.

[ReV:-O]

ah i dont wanna start mucking around with connectors and stuff. i dont even want to put the connector on myself, hopefully the store can do it for me

[bl-is-future]

that is what i just said there is a pre made board specifically for thunder power and flight power lipos to be balanced on the 610NET, You dont do anything but plug it in, no need to make anything. here is a link - http://www.allerc.com/product_info.p...oducts_id=3162

why do you insist on such a large battery?

[ReV:-O]

is that really a large battery? i figured it was kinda normal size just a bit heavy.
basically i just want the "best" battery. i want loads of runtime - like 45 minutes, and i want 6s, and it also needs to provide the Neu with the required amps

IMO any pack more than 5000mah is big, that will give you 30 mins of WOT runtime with a Neu 1515/2.5d..if you want more time buy a second pack, and when the first one dies, replace and run the second

im either gonna buy the Neu 1515/1y, or the Neu 1521/1.5D for it.. i just cant decide. i think the 1515 might struggle a bit and heat up and i hate things heating up lol

a 1515 is fine on a Revo, the Neu will heat up if youy buy one with too low of a wind, I used to run a 6s and 1515/2.5d and it run well even in the 110 deg heat here in Phoenix...I would quit running the Revo before it gave out...I would get tired of sweat running down my face while bashing,,,

buy one with too low of a wind? what does that mean? and can you choose how many winds you want?

yes...the lower the wind the higher your KV...just remember...high Kv = high heat

Take a look at the Neu 15xx series page here:

http://www.neumotors.com/20061222/1500_series_.html

Lower winds = higher kv.

On 6S you are probably best with a 1515 2.5D (what I run in e-Revo on 6S - just over 35mph with very moderate gearing and no heat issues - I could gear a bit lower and have it going 40-45 easily) or a 2D. 1Y may work but you have to gear pretty high and the first few minutes of a fresh pack are going to push that motor up to about ~55K rpm - I think you'll have heat issues.

o rite, how comes someone told me the 1515/1y might overheat in the muggy because they said it was a hot wind? me confused
