Hi all, I got my shiny new Kraton 6s today and already broke a steering knuckle running into a curb...
Anyways -- I have a charger that I bought several years ago for my RC planes, a Venom OPR2. It's capable of 6S charing at 6.0 amps. The starter battery I bought is a Zeee 6000mah.
Forgive my ignorance, but when I'm charging, it seems to hover around 2.2a. Anybody familiar with this charger and know if there's a setting I'm missing, or perhaps the charger is on the fritz? I read through the manual again to get myself up to speed and it wasn't much help. Google didn't return many answers either.
I charged the battery for about an hour earlier when I ran it, and the truck ran strong for about a half hour, which seems normal? This is my first RC car, and definitely my first large LiPo battery.
At any rate, I'm having an absolute blast, and I have some aluminum steering knuckles and some skidplates on order!
Some pics for reference
Thanks!
