Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - J-Dub - 03-21-2008
It will fit in the Mugen 5R box right. It says for Xray but any first hand experience? I dont want to buy the ballistic batterys one because its only 2200 and more expensive.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 03-21-2008
yes it will. cant go wrong with those packs
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - J-Dub - 03-22-2008
Good Gravy. It will be nice to run a whole practice night without charging.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - Michowski - 03-22-2008
more like 2 full race days without charging.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - J-Dub - 03-22-2008

Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 03-22-2008

Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - Michowski - 03-22-2008

The batts are nice, i got 2 and they last a long time.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - J-Dub - 03-23-2008
my 1300 Hump lasted me a practice night. so this will be a good change for me I think, Lol
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - J-Dub - 04-07-2008
I either got a defective one or my electronics really drain the pack low/dead about 1.5 hours of being on...
It's retarded...I figured it would last longer than that. My servos started to slow down on my 3rd Qualifier yesterday
All I have is a Dx2, Ace 1015 on Steering and JR 9100S on throttle.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - motoxer4life - 04-07-2008
I got 2 ace servos and an m11 and mine lasts about one practice night strong.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - Michowski - 04-07-2008
I ran 2 airtronics rock servo's, pt, with an m8 on spektrum and mine lasted a weekend easy. I never actually ran mine dead. After a race day at leisure with the quals and a main (my greevo = A MAIN) it would only put in 800-1000mah back into the battery. That includes the practice runs before the quals to. Id see if you can get a replacement if yours died in 1 race yesterday.

talk about high drain what amperage did you charge the pack at?
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - J-Dub - 04-07-2008
Usually the night before at 1 Amp. I recharged it at the track between my last qual and main, because my steering seemed to be getting a little slow. It might just be me, but I know for a fact the first practice night, it didnt impress me.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - Opliko - 04-08-2008
I have the same thing in my buggy, and my steering servo pumps out 370oz of torque, and it lasted me a whole practice night, with about half used up.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - cheesecake - 04-08-2008
charge at .5 at 1 amp you shorten the life of the cells and the length of time they will last its a huge diffrenc from charging at .5 amp
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - J-Dub - 04-08-2008
I dont have a million dollar charger.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - Ponch - 04-08-2008
My $50 duratrash charger does anything from .1-5 amps in variables of .1 amp.

i see well maybe you should invest a million dollars into a new charger.......
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - J-Dub - 04-08-2008
we'll see. I don't really see a charger as a necessary upgrade anytime soon. Since I don't run electric cars I never saw the point of spending some coin.
maybe if I could find a used good one.
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 04-08-2008
my shitty pirahna charger works the same as ponch's 45$ I usually charge them at .7 amps or 1.1 if i need it charged in a hurry
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - J-Dub - 04-08-2008
i'll keep getting it in mind, Mike. Don't you still race/need it anymore?
Team Helotes 2600 Receiver Pack - Michowski - 04-08-2008
the pirahna charger is what I used. Charged my pack at 1 amp max. It cost 50 bucks and will charge anything but lipo batts.
