Dave, that is most generous of you and I thank you for the offer. I like to use a tester on my batteries and do so frequently. Call it a comfort thing that makes me feel good. I know when I put the tester on line exactly how many volts I have left and so far this has worked for me.
Speaking of volts on the 5 cell packs, I have a question that I am debating on another thread and could use some good horse sense from you guys with more experience with 5 cell NiCd packs.
Here goes: Le't say you are using 4.8v on a 4 cell Rx pack as the minimum
no fly level. I know you can go lower and this is a conservative level, but for comparison sakes let's just stick with this minimum level for a minute.
Then on a 5 cell pack you would have to adjust this minimum level up to say 6v as the minimum in order to use the same logic. Correct? So, If I flew a 5 cell pack down to 4.8 v. as I normally would with a 4 cell pack, wouldn't this be the same as running a 4 cell pack down to 3.84 volts, which would looking for trouble. Correct? Or, because you are using a 5 cell pack can you use a lower minimum no fly threshold because of the additional cell? Or do you simply use the same logic regardless of the number of cell?
Now go have a cold one and let me know the answer once you figure all this out.

I'm simply trying to find out what the minimum no fly threshold is on a 5 cell to feel comfortable that I have a good margin of safety.
