RE: LiFe packs
Yeah, a good choice. Just consider the charger requirements for LiFe packs.
But, for most of us that were satisfied with 600 mah packs that came with our radios, these 1800 mah packs give us not quite 3 times the flight times, just based on their capacity. This gives us quite a good bit more flying time per charge.
Consider that these are 6.6 volt packs and the slightly higher current, well, I'm sure you can figure the rest out by yourself.
