Hi Joe
I was skeptical also , there are three things :
1 ) I charge at 1C
2 ) respect
3 ) my transmitter doesn,t fly and crash .
But mostly ,............... just dam tired of remembering to charge my transmitter , after it,s been on the shelf for a little under a week . With the lipo , it takes less than 30 minutes . And , all of the time , the lipo,s have kept there charge . I,m a die hard old fart also .
Good to go
Michel
