I am looking at possibly buying on of the new 4ch Hobbico SuperStar EP w/Ailerons the new one not the original 3ch.

Here is a link to it..I just want to know if any thing that comes with it will need to be changed in order to have a Lipo battery system. Thanks for any hlep and direction you can send me.

The answer: Nothing!

A 2S LiPoly is about the same as a 7-cell NiCd or NiMH. You'll want a pack capable of about 40 Amps of load, which is going to mean at least two packs in parallel for most LiPoly technology out there. A 2S2P Thunder Power 2100, and 2S2P Kokam 2000 (15C) are two choices.

Thanks Matt,
I thought I would have to change the engine and ESC. I will look into the batteries you recommended

Hobby Lobby will be selling a new 2s2p Thunderpower 4200mAh pack shortly.

This will give you what you need in a single Lipo pack. A 40amp continuous current delivery.

Thanks Greg I will keep a look out for htem.....now just a charger is next....but I think I will be getting the Hobbico accu-cycle elite
