How are these tanics working? I have some tanic 2150 for my t-rex they work just as good as my tp. But curious on how the 8800 would work on my ion.

[BobbySmith]

Lucky you should try a 3s 2220 in youre little Trex i got a used one if interested for 50.00 I fly my rex on 4s now

The 8880's have some serious Power equipped wiht the 32-3 geared 95.1 I like them so well that it is all iam flying for now. Hopefully some people wil post there results soon :smokin:

well , I did see a set yesterday , my cousin Karl brought over his new packs , looks good , alittle heavy , but the Ion can handle it , yall , due to the weight of these packs and the snort they put out , set the pinion on the tight side , and also put a pitch curve to look like a expo curve , so the torque wont strip gears or break the motor shaft at the threads where it screws into the motor .
too , bad its 3 degrees outside , dang we have about 16 hours of daylight , put the kids down for sleep when its daylite , wake up when it light,
also , like the thank my cuosin Karl , " for my birthday" , he bought a spare JR 10SX2 for me so I can retire my old one to Reflex . way cool
even though we get along like 2 fleas on a fat dog. sometimes we fight like cats and dogs . we are as hardheaded as they come , well , hes more hardheaded than me

[freezin eskimo]

HEHEHEHEHE! I Glad You Like The B-Day Present!

I Think I am More Hard Headed! Cant Wait To Try These Packs!


Karl

[BobbySmith]

Gear mesh tight for sure! they are only a couple oz heavier NO BIG DEAL . I use a throttle curve of 100,95,90,95,100 and it works very well

:smokin: :smokin: :smokin: :smokin:

[misskimo]

well , a Ion just broke the shaft with a set of TPs , so these motors put out a pile of instant torque , that my guess is in the horsepower range of 4 for around 2 to 3 seconds at the most . MA might need to revise that part to handle 6 HP,

almost time to break out the helis and try the new 8880 packs!


:twisted:

[BobbySmith]

Light them up ESKIMO :bomb: :bomb: :mrgreen:

[freezin eskimo]

Easy Bro , Easy I Will Get Video Of Them In My ION Wehn Cuz Gets Home From The Dog! ( Red Dog Mine)

[misskimo]

Hey Bobby , well I got the Ion ready to fly again , and flipped the switch that runs to the reg and then to the batteries , and nothing , unplugged the reg to check the voltage , 1.88 volts , unplugged the battery , 1.88 volts , hooked my nicd battery up , and the switch in on and works , so since these batteries are toast , my question is , with the batteries hooked to the reg , and the switch off , will run the battery down , HUH? didnt know that , and I still havent even flew the heli , man , what next , :roll: :? :arggg: :dontknow :bomb:

[BobbySmith]

The answer is yes :arggg: Try to cycle the pack wiht like .50 amps or less it might come back
I dont run switches in my ION'S i plug it up when ready to fly


Bobby

[misskimo]

hey , well , I bumped them back up useing the tabs in nicd charge , wouldnt do it in lipo charge , it took about 3 to 4 minutes for each one to get around 3.3 volts , once there , I discharged the highest cell to match the other and put them on lipos 2 cell , once they get close to charge I will pull them off and top them off with the tab, and then discharge them and charge again as 2s. supprised me they came back , but it must have been the slow discharge that didnt hurt them . so you just leave the reg hooked to the rx and plug in the battery as you charge huh? I will do that too , so I dont forget to unplug the reg again

Tony
