Hi guys I'm new to the electric heli world. I just picked up my first EP and I love it. I've had 3 hops in the Belt CP so far and it's flying great. The only problem is, I have been spoiled with 15-20 minute flight times with gas helis. So I set out to find a larger capacity battery. I'm looking on Xheli.com and they have an "11.1v Exceed RC Fusion Power 4000Mah 15c" battery that looks like it might work with our helis. Before this all I have seen are 1000-2200 Mah batteries. Anyone tried one of these 4000s in a Belt CP? Will it have both connectors so I can plug it into my stock esky lipo 800Mah charger? Charge time is 5 hours @ 800Mah but you could probably get a good 20 minute flight time out of it as long as the motor doesn't heat up too much. Any ideas if this will work, if not what do you guys recommend for a hop up battery? I really want this one to be compatible :lol: This is a great forum by the way.

i doubt it will fly very well. too heavy you might be able to get it into a hover but it will be a tank.

To big too, it won't fit the battery bay, if you are gonna buy big batts always check your dimensions
