Flightpower Evo Lipos, break in cycles or just fly them ??

[OICU812]

Well I am curious on something. I know that by practice I like to fly 3-5 mild to medium flights on a new pack to break in the chemistry. Now days there are the new 30C packs that Evo Flightpower is putting out and I wonder,,,,, is anyone following any break in guidlines for these packs or just flying them as you would any flight right off the get go?

I would discharge them 25% for 2 or 3 flights, then discharge them
50% for 2 or 3 flights, then business as usual discharging no more than
80% of capacity.

Ultra is that just the way you do it, or is that something that was written by a lipo manufacturer? Just curious, makes sense though.

Thats sort of a general rule for Lipos. The chemistry does
require a few easy discharge cycles before you start slamming
it. :wink:

Ok I allready do that, I was hoping there might be a specific rule with some data or something, its ok, I'll just do some mild stuff for about 6 cycles minimum than start throwin the poop to it, lol.

I fly mine sport flying for the first 5 flights or so, and never pass 80% of the capacity.

Then I start fly 3D with them, but never pass 80% of the capacity ever.

They will definitely com on over the first 10 or 20 cycles. :)
