OK guys,

My Impact is my first foray into larger electric models so a few words of advice wouldn't go amiss from you seasoned electric pros!

How do many of the large lipo packs do you own? How do you charge them? How long do you get from each pack?

I was speaking to a FlightPower (lipo producers) guy on Saturday who said that their new cells can be charged at up to 2.7C which makes things more bearable at the field - not having to wait 60-90 mins for a recharge will be nice!

Now, can I charge my packs from my car battery with the engine running? I know Schulze (my charger manufacturer) doesn't recommend it but this is more to do with an unregulated power supply to their charger than anything else?

I don't fancy having to buy and transport a generator and even a large leisure battery is not going to give me a days flying is it???

So, how do you guys do it when I hear you say you had a good days flying/practising on your latest electric models!!!

Thanks,
Mark
