what size RX batt for a Razzle 3D?
I'm getting a Razzle 3D and will be putting a Tower .75 in it with Hitec 625's on all surfaces. Planing on a 6V system. What capacity would be recomended?
I usually just fly heli's and have gotten the urge for a fixed wing 3D ship. Not sure about the current consumption on these things. Need some numbers from what some of you others have been useing.
Thanks.

Razzle Battery
Hello Arrio, we just got ours flyin. We have an OS 91 FX in it with combo of HS605's and 2 JR 537's on ele. I like to have plenty of juice on our 3D planes so We have a 1400 MAH 6 volt flat pack in it which helped to balance it out well by putting the batt right in front of the servo tray. We ran pull pull on rudder with a 605 on the tray. Flew real well on our test flt sunday - it was cold and windy and it locked into a hover real well and did all other basic manuvers well. Did not try any real hard 3D yet , so ??? Loks good so far - lands very slow and easy too. It may be a keeper ! Have FUN , Rod & Chris in PA.

I am using a 4 cell 1650 mah RX pack. This is a NiMh pack and seems to be plenty juice. Keeps in mind, if you use a 5 cell (6 volt) RX pack, the servo's will draw more power from them than if you use a 4 cell (4.8 volt) pack. Therefore, I would go for as least the 1650 mah pack. I have 4 HS77, one 5625, and a standard for throttle.
Good Luck,

Thanks guys. Last night I bought online, two 5cell packs, an 1850Ma and a 2700Ma NiMH. Looks like I will be useing te 1850.
I usually just do heli's and I like to have alot of reserve power in my RX packs. So generally I run at least 2000Ma in them. I remembered that fixed wings don't usually consume as much battery, but I wasn't sure were the general comfort level was. I could use the 2700 in my choppers anyway.
Most of my stuff should in by the weekend. Plane, engine, servos batteries, props. I ordered APC props 14x4 and 15x4, Zinger 14x4 and 14x5. Hopefully one of these will work out.
I likely won't get to fly it till the following weekend. Weather is calling for rain all this weekend anyway.
Really looking forward to flying this Razzle!
