lipo

Hello friends! I picked up a senton Mega as my first rtr RC this passed weekend. Had an absolute blast driving it around. What I didn't enjoy was 10min of driving and then 4hrs of charging. I'm looking at improving this run time. Should I move into a 2S lipo? I understand higher mAh is going...

In the new Arrmas the esc is rated 150amps, my SMC 4 and 6s Lipos are 135amp, is this too close for comfort or safe to run?

Do you guys balance charge every time or maybe do it every other? I read balance charging is a little more stressful on the battery and can reduce its life span.

So one of my favorite customers comes in and sees me on a regular basis to pick my brain for new creative things to try on his cars. Well Friday night he comes by after work as usual and happens to see a crazy combo I set up for a different customer and he starts to drool over it. And if course...

Hi all I am new to the RC world. When I bought the Senton 6s, I was debating between a 4s lipo or a 6s lipo. The person at the hobby store recommended 2 - 3s lipos. I thought it was a good idea, as he mentioned I could run a 3s to learn on then run 2 - 3s together. Once I was home and read the...

Hello everyone, I just purchased a Arrma Typhon and I am looking forward to getting it. I was wondering what batteries is everyone running. I would like to start out with 4S then move up to 6S eventually. Thanks.

hello everyone , looking at chargers .. sorry new to the hobby ... Venom quad duo Hitec x4 Hitec x700 Looking for a machine that can charge 6s batteries fast, stored etc.. What would u buy out of these options??...

what is the typical low voltage cutoff on a v3 kraton? I just purchased a voltage alarm and need to set correctly. Any help would be great.

New to this awesome forum, a lot of information here, and due to much praise of the Kraton over a few other RCs I was debating, I pulled the plug and ordered a Kraton V3 and should be here in a few days. That being said, I did have a few questions as I prepare to take it out for the inaugural...

Was wondering if anyone is using 3s in granite mega 4wd.and can the diffs handle it?

I am looking to buy the new Granite 4x4, but also need to get a charger and back up batteries. I have had some advice for SMC batteries. How do I know the size that will fit and the connector? Can someone point me towards a couple 2s lipo batteries and charger. Too many options and I can't...

So, since I'll soon be buying the kraton, I was wondering what battery I should use. Is it better to get 2 3s's, or just single 6s batteries? And also, which brand of lipo? Same goes for 4s batteries, if I'll ever use those.

I just pick up the new talion for my son and found out his old lipos are no good. His charger will only charge a 3s so I need to find the largest 3s pair and 2s pair that will fit under the body. What's the max height I can go? Will two smc 5400's for I think they are 37mm tall each?

Curious if the Outcast, or any of the Arrma 6S kit's runs any better on higher C than 50? Has anyone run a comparison? Trying to figure out if it's worth it to go with 90C + batt's for the Arrma 6S series.

I just bought this ammobox to keep my lipos when not in use. Its air tight so in case of a fire in the box, would it be better with a vent hole or not, for expanding gases or whatever?

Hi whats the max safe temp on lipos after running thanks

I just received my arrma Kraton and I'm stoked. Thing is scary looking just sitting on the shelf waiting for batteries. Well based on forum reading, reviews, YouTube, etc I decided to go with a 5s lipo from rc juice for a happy medium. After reading some conflicting info with some guys saying...

I just put a talion into layaway and being my first "big boy" RC, I asked if they carried a single 4s pack instead of 2 2s batteries. Long story short, they didnt carry 4s because not a lot of people on my area run them. But he also said that he wasnt sure if a single 4s would be to much power...

I have a onyx 5000mah 3s lipo soft case that fills like it's got air trapped inside. Not sure if I would consider it puffed and all cells check out the same. So my question is should I keep running this battery or cut my losses and toss it?
