They can't be beat. Look on the left side under categories for "Lipoly and Chargers". There are 12 pages!!!!

Isn't 3S considered high voltage for this bird? Really need a 25C pack?

I have been VERY pleased with Revolectrix lipos, how bout this one?

bummer, wonder if the 700mah will fit between the frames. haven't had time to search yet.

FWIW,

GAUI says the Wolverine is good for 2s or 3s.
My prime vendor (HH) recommends a (rather heavy) FP 1320ma 3s, believe it or not it fits and flies great. I just got in the 3s Evo Lite 800ma, but I'm going to have to move my gyro for them to fit.

On 3s's I run temps from 128 to 137f on the battery and ESC, with a moderate workout!, but so far, and this is probably 50 flights, no problems, and no puffed or damaged batteries. We're trying to figure out what's up with this.... so please be careful with your equipment, I don't want anyone to tear anything up, but I'm still going, so it may be worth looking into.

With a little luck, I'll have time to test batteries soon. Thanks to StoatnChips and "wanna-be-quiet" for use of some new types to test.

Dude, that avatar keeps me ROFL. What is it, a wolverine? It's funny as schmidt.
:rolling

[JEB123]

Ah! The stoat is an ermine, or a mink, right?

[JEB123]

More likely a weasel, eh?

[stoatnchips]

You got it Jeb... A Stoat is part the Mustelidae family, including Weasels, Ferrets, Mink, Otters, Wolverines and the all time bad ass attidude Honey Badger!! I have been using the Stoatnchips screen name (a bit like Fish and Chips... just for poorer people in the north of England;)) for a while but could not find much in the way of an avatar. Was looking around and had the choice of the following... I'd love to take credit for drawing him FWIW the image was originally called Ranting Weasel (Fairly Appropriate) from the 90's web series - Zesty Weasel. Just had an idea of how i can make it a little more contemparary though :banana

[JEB123]

I love the little fangs and pissed off look! He looks like I do when I crash! Hi-larious. Good job.

[stoatnchips]

Any preferences of Avatar?

Sorry for any offence... I guess political undertones aren't obvious until you live in a country!!:)

[JEB123]

Yeah, keep the original.

[Jetleaf]

Hey Stoat here's a thought. Instead of "revolucion" why not "evolucion"or"rotacion"
I love the beret regardless.

Yeah, the beret's ok, it's more French than commie, I think rotacion works for the heli theme.

[stoatnchips]

I think you're right... and whats more is you may have found a Helista tag line in there somewhere!!

Don't worry, none taken! It does make a good play on words though! Anyway, another sidetracked thread... Oh yeah, Hobbycity.com!!! Keep 'em flyin'!!! It's happy hour here!:cheers

[JEB123]

Pardon my ignorance, but what is this Helista?

[Jetleaf]

You would have to ask Buzz or Gr4y
