RE: Lost a plane today
I wasn't being sarcastic...........................I just guess that ignorance works for some people (being me).
Seriously, I never knew any better 'till now.......I will probably go with 6 volts the next time I buy a battery..
My 4.8 volt batteries charge up to 5.7 and 5.9.....Maybe my meter is in error....I don't know, but I won't change anything until I do encounter a problem.
I've been flying since the late 1970's and only lost one plane due to battery failure........and that was because I had a dead/bad cell.
Sorry if I offended anyone..........just telling it like it is.
