Hyperion Charger takes 1hr for 1800 2S lipo? I tried charging my 1800mah LIPO packs on my Hyperion EOS 5idp (BPP said "Best LIPO Charger") and i have yet to get the END display as seen in the directions. Nowhere in the directions does it say when the batt is fully charged. I'm seeing...

The thing is absolutely too fast. Doesn't even hit top speed in my carpeted hallway. Can't wait to get some sticky tires on and hit the parking lot. http://halfeight.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=948&cat=500
I am looking at battery packs for the mini inferno. Is 1400 mah worth it over the 1200? My son is 7 yrs. old he would be happy if the car ran for ever. I want to give him some good run time and I don't want to mod. the car. I would also like to upgrade the esc. Sooo, how much longer will the 1400...
Any comments on connecting 2 of the 860mah 2S2P 7.4V packs in parrallel that would produce 1720mah and 36amps continuous. The pricw is reasonable enough. I am new in this hobby and w/ so many new optons for power, I am really looking to give my son some good drive time. thanks
This one has to be custom built in 3 packs, 2x 3 batteries, and 1x 2 batteries. I Used Sanyo like batts, 2500mAh capacity. The stock receiver goes into the left battery saddle. As they say, a photograph is worth a thousand words, so here goes a link to my gallery. ...

Hello guys, I have a used but in excellent condition Xtreme 42s (X42s) pack from United RC for sale. This pack has been used maybe 4 or 5 times. I just don't have the time that I would like to play with my little Stuggy and so this and a couple of other packs are just sitting. I really need...
Has anyone looked into mounting some in their ST?
My mom says she'll buy me a pack and charger if I can find them for like less than $65. And it's not necessary to have a discharge feature. So I know I want an IB1400, and the Duratrax Piranha looks like a charger- any idea where I can get these things pretty cheap? Oh yeah, I want to buy them...
Just purchased a Mini ST. Would like to know what people are using as upgraded batteries for the truck. United RC has a pack but it looks like you only put it on one side of the vehicle. Seems to me that the would knock the ballance off. What saddle pack are out there? Who makes them? ...
Hi All, I'm new to the Mini Inferno scence and am hoping for some sound advice. :confused: I'll be ordering my MI soon accompanied with some Kyosho 9.6v 1100 Ni-MH saddle batteries. Q1. Are these batteries the right choice? One pack comes with the circuit protector, which I've heard is a...
"Hyperion Litestorm 1800mah 2s 7.4v for racing and the 1800mah 3s 11.1v for bashing/speed runs." someone told me to use one of those lipo's in my buggy but when i checked the size of the lipo.... it was too big. can someone who has a lipo battery pack in there mini inferno tell me which battery...
I'm gonna get any one of the ones I list with this charger. Here are the ones I'm considering: Thunder Power 11.1 E-Tec 11.1 Or, PolyQuest 11.1 I'm actually leaning a little towards the Poly-Quest right now, but I know the TP has great rep. And I'm sure the E-Tec will fit in the KMI...
So I bought a new lipo battery for another mini r/c vehicle that I have (Vendetta). I don't know what I was thinking when I did this, obviously I wasn't thinking. I was getting ready to cut the wires (from the battery) to length to solder on a Deans connector. I marked the wires to where I needed...

Does anybody know the size of these Sanyo batteries? They look like they're 4/5 cells.
I have an FMA voltage cutoff somewhere around here, but I remember encountering an issue where there was little or no delay in cutting off power to the motors when the voltage dropped when going full throttle from a stop. I remember talking with an extremely intelligent and helpful dude at FMA...
anybody using lipo in their st ? It would have to be a saddle pack right? Any info would really help thanks guys! chris
I have just plunged into that whole, lipo/brushless thang but am unsure of a few things. My 3-cell lipo packs come with a 4 pin, flat plug for a charger, I believe, but: 1) How do I connect its small two pin plug to my brushless esc? 2) I have deans pairs ready but the cable attached to the...
