RE: Stupid question, I'm sure.

It looks like I'm gonna have to break down and get an inexpensive charger that does it all sooner or later.

Supposedly the ESC on this plane shuts the motor down when the batteries get too low,...

RE: Stupid question, I'm sure.

Great, thanks for the help!

I guess I will just stick with the set up that it has now, hopefully it just needs more of a push when hand launching it.

I couldn't find any info on this thing...

RE: Do any planes still use NiCad's?

That I can't tell you. I know the plane hasn't been flown in a few years. I charged the battery and tested it, and it got all green lights on my cheapo charger/tester. The only marking on the pack...

RE: Stupid question, I'm sure.

Ok, thanks for the help. Now if I switch to NiMH, say a 7 or 8 cell pack, would that provide more power out of the 280 BB? Or would I also need a bigger motor for more power? The plane seemed like...

I'm sure its not that easy, so what else would I have...

Do any planes still use NiCad's?

I was wondering if anyone knows of any plane still for sale that uses NiCad batteries. Seems like most are now LiPo or NiMH packs.

I just destroyed an old Sukhoi, and if the repairs don't work...
