Anybody running the Turnigy Graphene 800 mAh batts?

[bstanley72]

I just received 6 of these in anticipation of my V2 pre-order (I don't have the current version) and I'm now concerned they will not fit under the canopy as they seem pretty thick (about 26.5 mm).

Can anyone let me know if they will fit in the current version, and therefore likely fit in V2?

Thanks

I think you may have gone for the wrong size batteries. I have the 1000mAh Gens Ace batteries and they are around 17mm thick and fit under the canopy easily. They give around 5 1/4 mins of flight time with mild 3D. This said give them a try as I suspect they will be narrower

My 1000mah graphene turnigy fit. Tight. But they fit.

Where does the tightness come from? Thickness, width or length? The 800s are 4 mm thicker than the 1,000s, though they are a good bit shorter.

The height and length and especially the stupid huge, stiff cables they use!
