Anyone else tried out the Orion LiPo's for the H8? Light, but a bit high priced, right?

I have searched for DAYS without finding any real answers so any help is much appreciated. What is mAh? Is this the amount of power that is stored in the battery pack or in each cell? So the higher the mAh the longer the run time? 7.4v and 11.1v, this is what the Battery outputs to the motor...

What is the best lipo to use on stock motor? Going to change the stock in time but not soon.

what is the other batteries saddle the best for stock motor? use 9.6

Hi can any1 care to share what kind of li po is good for the H8? im currently using the normal 8 cells. I'm new to using li po, so which and what is best?

Everyone talks about 2 cell or 3 cell. The quark 33 pro car says it can handle 5 cell Lipo. What about running two 2 cell packs in series? That way you would have two packs for bashing around and could use them both together if you wanted. Any thoughts?

is it possible to revive lipo's once they have been :mad: left pulgged in... what a dumb ass i am!! regards

Does anybody have the dimensions for the lipo battery that the IRC Vulcan comes with? Im thinking of using the battery posts and brace for my lipos.

I know I may sound retarded (I am new in electric RC) but what exactly are the advantages of these expensive LiPo batteries and NiMH battery packs compared to AA NiMH. LiPos and the 2/3 packs are like 1500Mah tops? Whereas AA NiMh are 2500Mah. Why is everyone going LiPo route? Is there longer...

CHANGING CONNECTOR PLUGS Unsure how to do this? This guide will ensure a good connection that will last. What you will need for this task: * Soldering iron * Solder

Hey there, Just wondering how long a 1400mah 9.6 volt battery would last with a mamba 6800 system.. The rc18t can really only fit 7.2 and go fast, i could imagine 9.6 volt would be even faster? Thanks Adrian

I should try? I have seen people muck around with big amounts of cells with lipo, but no ones really tried nimh in large amounts.. The quark 33a pro can cope with 18volts. So whats to say i couldn't add a few more cells :) What is the usual result from something like that?

What kind of charger has this connection and would work well with this battery pack? http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=144_653_697&products_id=17622 thanks

I bought a mamba brushless system: 6800k. Later on I would like to power it with lipos, 2s to start with. Is there any thing I need to take into consideration when shopping for a pack? I don’t know anything about lipos other than that they need a proper charger and a balancer. I saw...

I just got a Duratrax Intellipeak Deluxe Charger. I'm using a normal personal computer (PC) to supply a steady 12V up to 8A to the charger. The charger has trickle charge at 100mA, fast charge between 0.5A and 6.5A. Received two G-MAXX nimh 1200mA for the MIST and a normal nicd 2000mA 7.2V...

I just got a MIST last thrusday for my kid and that thing is somewhat slow. I'm looking at buying a pack of cells and read here 'bout the intellect 1400 pack. two questions. where to buy in europe since I only find in the states, australia and hong kong. and the battery protection circuit...

Hi, I have a battery with this on it "Half8, SP Battery, 9.6v-11Ni-MH". I am just wondering what may have happened to the battery. It charged fine many times. But it will no longer take a charge. I know my charger works, as it charges other batteries fine. Is it possible to: 1. Drain...
