Hey can anybody steer me to a place that provides receiver battery packs? I need a NiMH type 4 or 5 cell between 3000 and 5000 mah. Also looking for a Viper Marine 40 amp ESC.
I have a viper I am not using.. send me a PM I switched to lifepo4 for receivers due to significant changes in run-time over a short period with Nimh. Maybe I just have bad luck.. but almost every small pack I bought for recievers would drop its capacity by half in 60 days. I have had good luck with: TowerHobbies.com |Hobbico LiFeSource LiFe 6.6V 2100mAh 10C Receiver U and from Hobby King: ZIPPY Flightmax 2100mAh 2S1P 30C LiFePo4 Pack (US Warehouse) ZIPPY Flightmax 4200mAh 2S1P 30C LiFePo4 Pack (US Warehouse) The 4200 was a test for running the radio and the solenoids off the receiver battery to avoid problems related to brown-outs (is that what you call it..) or voltage sags that prevented the solenoids from operating under large current loads. They are also super lightweight and easy to waterproof.
