Can I use this battery?
Hi All.
I'm brand new to electrics and have a question. Can I use the 9.6 V 8 cell NiCd from my old Futaba transmitter to power my new GWS Slow Stick if I solder the proper connector on? Also, the sticker on this Sanyo pack lists two charge rate- 15 hrs @ 60mA, and quick charging at 5Hrs @ 180mA. Is it a no-no to exceed the quick charge rate? Thanks for the help. G. Hands |

Hands I suggest to invest a few dollars and get a couple new packs of the right size and capacity from a e-flight vendor. Steve |

If your running your slow stick with the 300 motor from GWS,
then you should get 8 cell packs such as AAA 730 nimh's or, you can try the KAN 950's on it. The Kans will be a little heavier than the AAA's. Dave... |

I would also advise against using a transmitter battery pack.
My favorite battery for the Slow Stick is the 8-cell, 5/4AAA, 800mAh, NiMH pack used on the Crazy Max from Wattage at Hobby People. It costs $33 and is often on sale. The pack weighs only 4.1oz with connector. You can also buy them at Batteries America. Good luck! |
