Hey Jay,

I always start reading all threads backwards....its just my way.

LMAO.... Same here JPEE ! Most the time.... So I guess it wouldn't shock you if I said I will also pick up a magazine, and browse it backwards also ? Right to left.... I always knew I was an odd duck.......

I'am the same way, and like to use my 3s 1800-2200 lipo's in other crafts also to make them useful. My RC-Cars take them, my Typhoon and Funtana plane also take the same batts, and if I wanted I could also double them up to use in the T-500, but have other batts for that. But it just makes it nice to get more bang for your buck so to speak...

A fresh 3s battery goes first to the T-450, as the heli's will want and need that good battery... As they get maybe a little tired, I'll then use one, (or them) for my plane(s) since they don't "draw" as much amps and energy like my heli's do and I'll fly them for awhile like that. Then, there last stage they get used with the RC-cars of mine and that's where they then spend there last bit of life, since the cars don't draw as much also... But the batts do get banged around hardcore, from crashing, flipping, etc. etc. I still have a couple lipo's for my cars that I just can't seem to kill yet. Lipo's are much more tolerant than some might think.... Depending on brand I'am guessing though...

I'am still waiting to kill my first one. I have Thunder-Power, Air thunder's, E-Flite's, and a few Parkzone lipo's, a couple Outrage lipo's... All very good ! And troublefree... When I need to buy a few more batts in time here, I'am going to try the Zippy batteries that are probably the most popular battery out there I'am guessing as I browse the forums. Excellent bang for your buck there !

If you get the Stryker, make sure to get the brushless version ! WAY better in my readings..... I had thought it was the F-27C or something like that.... Jer knows....
