I have a li-Polymer 1300mah/7.4v thunder pack. I get about 15 minutes of flying on it mabey. I want longer flight but dont want to blow andy chips away. I have a pixi20p for the main and a pixi7p for the tail. My main does have a 5amp fuse on it. any sugestions would be great. Escpectially Pros and Cons.

Jus, 1300mah is a gd choice. Some have used kokam1500mah with success and some find it too heavy. Its a trade off if u get higher capacity. But try not to go over 1500mah. it'll probably be too heavy to hover properly. Juz my 2 cents....

I'm using a Thunder power 7.4v, 2100mah and have had very good luck with it. I am getting about 20 to 25 minutes of flight time.

how much did you pay for your 2100mah thunder pack? and from where? What would a 3 cell do for me different then a 2 cell?

Charlie

I payed $80 Canadian for mine, that's about $57 USD. I have read where people have used 3 cells, but they burnt up there boards. That's why I went with the 2 cell (better safe then sorry). I don't need a 3 cells anyway, I has all kinds of power with 2 cells.

It looks the same as the one I got. I don't know what the 6c stands for. I just looked at my battery and it doesn't say anything about 6c. If it is the same as the one I got, that's a good price. Thanks for the link.

Charlie

I just looked at that battery again, the plug-in on the end is different then mine, but other then that it is the same

there is no actuall conectors on that battery....it is shrink wrap I believe. just for shipping perposes. I think I will go with that pack as my main and use my other as a back up. I am burning motors up like crazy....not too big of a problem though. I am about to try a different motor. Much bicgger but same gear and everything is already on it. Ill let everone know how it goes.
