Looks nice. Is that a Zeee 5200mah 80c? I'm thinking about ordering a pair and wonder how they hold up in the 3s line. Do you like them?
I’ve been impressed with zeee batteries. Cheap and perform well.
Okay. I DO NOT recommend Lectron pro LiPos I bought one because my LHS recommended it and it's given me issues since I got it. It's a 5200mah and only takes 3100mah and obviously doesn't hold up to it's C rating (50c). It has really bad sag and trips LVC after 6-7mins. Driving in cold more like 3-4. Hope Zeee holds up to their specs I should have a far better experience with RC having a decent LiPo. Would have claimed warranty or returned it but I thought it was normal being a newbie to LiPos. Now it's too late. Maybe I got a dud IDK
hmmmm... that's strange... i have the exact same battery, a lectron pro 2s 5200 mah 50c, and it takes full charge, i can run the battery to lvc and it will charge to like 5000~5100 mah. maybe you got a bad battery? and i can get a good 40-45 min of run time depending on my throttle finger
I have the same issue with my povway lipos. Ones a 7200mAh the other is 5200 both 3s and after about 5mins they trip LVC, check voltage and says cells still at 3.7-3.8v. Really sucks as they are both brand new only have ran them like 4-5 times each as this happens every time. Wish they performed how they are supposed to as they are the lightest packs I own which helps with bashing to keep weight down and save parts.
I have the the soft pack 4s Zeee batteries as well and they have been superb, but these hard case 3s batteries don't have anywhere near the punch that the HobbyKing Turnigy Heavy Duty 3s packs I've got have, I'm a little unimpressed with these Zeee's but very impressed with the 4s Zeee's. My guess is it's hit and miss, and if you get a some from a good batch then they are going to be great, but they may have some that are not so good. They have been reliable just not giving the performance I would have expected, the IR is quite high on these 2 3s Zeee batteries, which has been the case from the start.
There Great I have about 6 Zeee batteries 100c 8000 mah & 7200 mah. Haven’t had an issue yet, 35+ run times & change / balance with no issues!
How do you like the 6S Typhoon shocks besides the weight? Front and rear set-up? Was it with the stock body and springs?
I didn't like it at all, the whole build was too heavy, I changed them back after one or two runs. Mind you I didn't tune the shocks and I had a heavier motor in at the time.
Any tips for doing this?
Remove the shock from the car and lever the shaft with your hands. Do this by putting the bent part on the edge of a bench or vice and then with a little force pushing the opposite way to the bend. You may find it easier to remove the shaft from the shock body. I've even been able to bend them back with my thumb and fingers.
Thanks! I’m new to the RC scene so doubt I’ll go crazy with upgrades to the motor department, at least not in the immediate future. Just wanted a better handling and stable car.
Don’t big rock and typhon use identical shocks and springs from the factory?
I think he is talking about the 6s Typhon shocks, which are definitely different.
The shocks may improve handling, but the big rock is not a stable design, if you want a stable car the Vorteks is much better.
Well, the Typhon 6S is way heavier than the big rock.
Yeah I'm a little confused about the comment, I would have put money on the 6s Typhon being heavier than the big rock. I have both and the big rock had very soft springs compared to the 6s Typhon?
