Default Is this Lipo Brand any good for PZ planes?

Has anyone used these before?

http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...idProduct=6306

I have read some good reviews on them. I need them for my PZ T-28s and my PZ Mustang.


$8.99 per battery????? Seems too good.

I have a ton of Hobbycity batteries and other stuff - VERY good value for money. I have several of their 2200mah 3S packs, and they have been fine. Just don't push them too hard continuously over the C rating, and they will do very well.

In the case of the one you linked to, you will probably have to change the main connector to whatever your PZ plane uses, but that's worth the trouble.

Hope this helps...Chris

I too have used the Lipos from HK with no problem. Great prices BUT take a look at what happens when you add shipping. I've actually found better prices here in the U.S.A.

Check out rcpartz.com. Their only issue is availablilty !!!!

I just tried that site and it's not working. It takes me to a generic site.

for the airplanes your refering to I don't bleave there is much peformance demand so I don't think IMO you need to spend top doller on packs

I like the Turnigy batteries, but prefer the rhinos they sell if they have them available in the right configuration and dimensions for my use. I have had very bad luck with the zippy line so far, but the turnigy and rhinos seem to all be great.

Where can I find these batteries and how much?

I am looking for lipos for the PZ mustang (not sure what size or voltage)
and I'm looking for lipos for the PZ t28 Trojan. Those are 11.1v 1800-2200 mah 3s
That hobby king does not carry those sizes.
Where else can I look. I don't want to spend too much per battery because I am trying to get a cycle going so I can fly and charge and not have to wait for a battery to charge.
