Got Batts?

[LockMD]

I know its over kill, but I am stocking up for the 600 - it will use 4 of them for 1 10 min flight.

Dang,

I have battery envy:thumbup:

I wish I had 1/2 of those.

[skigolfmike]

Looks like you have enough batts to make one good pack and enough others to to join team taco.:bomb:

[LockMD]

Yup, just one pack out of all of them argh! well 2 more of the red ones will make another.

I really liked the Loong-Max (white ones) but they are like -26 stock last time I checked so I had to venture off to others. The non-stock blue one is a zippy I like it too.

Hey LockMD
I was lucky and ordered 2 LoongMax Batteries when I saw you post. I am very pleased so for. My question is have all your ABC batteries worked so far. When I was checking out at hobbycity the red ABC battery came up to fit in my shipping weight so I bought one for 19.99. When I put it on the heli it seemed to increase the RPM quite a bit . Have you noticed them being any stronger.
I think you have the right idea just hook the batteries together for your 600 but I would only join identical packs if you mix them up one may discharge quicker and go low voltage on you.

You are correct I will only hook up 4 of the red ones all the same 2100mah


They are fine but I do like the Loong-Max better, since I have got a Zippy and its prety close to the loong-max so if they dont get the loong-max instock soon I will order 3-4 Zippies

So am I correct that you are ordering from Hobby city in Hong Kong?? Is there any problem with shipping, etc?? Kind of nervous about ordering from there.

[adelmasw]

Also what is the JST-XH balancing connector? is this a thunder power style? Align style?

I would like to know before i order (if i do) to make sure i have the ability to connect to the TP balancer.

[LockMD]

Yes they come with the proper stock balance charger and a deans connector. I have ordered from them MANY times with 0 issues, shipping is a bit pricey but worth it in the long run.

[adelmasw]

Well i think i will try the long max. they are out of stock so i guess i will order and wait.

thanks much.

[LockMD]

the Zippy are about the same, only have one but will order more. I would not order while on BO but up to you.

[skigolfmike]

I'm thinking of using my 2 TP2100s and/or my 2 E-Flite 1800s on a Trex 500 or a Gaui 550. The Gaui needs 2 3S1P 3000-3300mAh packs to get 7-8 minutes though. The Trex can get 7-8 minutes on 2500s. Trex 500 is more expensive up front and is smaller. Gaui's battery cost is higher. Decisions, decisions.

[LockMD]

I know huh? well now I have:
cx2
cp pro
honey bee fp
honey bee fp (brushless)
b400
e-smart 600

I just paid off my credit card last night 4K YIKES!

think I am done for a while, well will need hop-ups, batts, accessories, spare parts but NO more heli's for me at least not for a while. Just need to fix and fly what I have now....

Off to the field hope to have cool vids later today.
