Thanks for the input.

So, what are the downsides of leaving a pack fully charged for more than a couple of days?

A chemist could provide you with a more accurate and detailed explanation but, the way I understand it, minimizing the static load or charge ultimately slows the inevitable rise in internal resistance that marks degredation of the anode and/or cathode. It facilitates some degree of stasis. Kinda like avoiding sunlight is conducive to healthy skin. It works for me.

A couple days is not a big deal.

On call this weekend, guess i'll do a "storage discharge" tonite.

Thanks.

I once asked a top notch 'lipo tech' guy from one of the big suppliers the best way to look after the cells, and got back a five word reply-

"Use it or loose it"

Just get out and fly as much as you can...

LOL

Hi all

Great thread Guys!
A question from a new 5003D owner here:
Should I use an external BEC and a separate RX batt. on the heli? I saw some guys in the thread do it, while others didn't

If so - which one (BEC that is)?
I'll probably get a CC ESC (Kontronik seems way out of budget) and a Scorpion motor.

Thanks

no real need for seperate rx batt. and yes you should have a seperate bec with a cc esc, i would go with a hurcules bec or hurcules super bec.

Hello guys...

On my 600 i will use the Jive 80HV..
And i wanna ask how to connect the slave wire and an eneloop 4.8 as BUffer pack on a 7channel reciever...

I have obly one channel left for these too...
Can i put a Y wire and put them on the same channel???

Will there be a problem???

Mr Mel. The ReadyHeli site recommended the Logo 600 scorpion HK III 44035-560 with a 12 tooth pinion. You were talking 17 and 18 tooth pinions. I am running Jive 80HV with heatsink on 10S. Recommendations?

terrabit · 04-21-2011, 10:21 AM

104t vs 152t main gear. which one are youusing? With that motor I would definitely recommend the 104t. The 152t is prone to stripping.
