Doen't mean you own the company. Im pretty sure those are pics of the company and there advertized boats. Why dont you post a picture of your own boat on there. One taken by you...

my batteries work fine, i accualy like them quite a bit'.

I don't have the electronics for in-boat numbers, but my end charge v is 8.94-8.96, peaking around 9.06v. mAh charge around 5200 at 123F, with run times around 9 min or 2.7mi roughly.

Sounds like the 3300s you have were well maintained. Batt mx (maintenance) is the key along with the right prop.
my batteries are arround there. they peak at 9.1 and before i plug them into the boat there from 8.7-8.8. they do supprizingly well for 2 year old packs. they have got hundreds of runs on em' tho. im ready for some ib's... and i always charge my 3300's at either 3.3 amps or higher sometimes i go up to 4.3, it doesn't hurt em' just speeds it up a bit.

i didn't mean it like that...

Show me where you can find My skater on the web site.
come on.
i meant that you didn't design the boat, and you didn't your simply someone who liked someone elses design and decited that you wanted one of your own..

you have nothing to do with that company, your just another person that ownes one of there boats.. thats like me putting my sv27 on here just cause i own one. or a battery just because i have it, manufactuares made the boat, you just own it.

thats what i thought. i mean why would it matter how fast you charge it at?? only thing that i do is watch the temps. if temps are too hot go down a .1 or so. until i have found the perfect amps that keeps it below 120 degrees.

yes temps are a biggy.
Also the faster you charge it the lesser life you have in the pack . but you will be OK with 5 amps . you wont notice any life charge from 3 amps to 5 amps.
130 degrees is OK but just OK.
try not to get them over that.

40 mins is great.
and 100 is even better.

i have M1 cells that i am going to charge at about 20 amps should be done on in about 6 mins with a core temp of about 130 max.
i can run 2 heats in a row with out even getting new batteries. its about as long as it takes to pit for nitro

Do you have a charger that Goes up to 20 amps and have M1 cells?
You cant do it with your Ib's or GP's . they will blow up

I see everybody has gotten into the name changing thing today. I think I know you from somewhere??? I think I got I got Scrooged. Dumby me didn;t realize you could only change it twice in a year....so...it's "Guess Who" for awhile.

FWIW, there used to be a pair of Cigarettes here in town that were named "Buddy Who" and his son's matching mate "Guess Who". They were the stuff in their respective days......

Hey BJ...

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I've said that before. Oh, for protecting my *****. You know, fighting for my freedom to ride, work, run my slow SV and chit like that! Oh yeah, and affording me to go to the lake this evening after work and test out my son's reassembled Hottie at the lake that is all lit up with CHRISTMAS lights. Is that a bad word here. I don't give a rats "candy" arse.... Speaking of which.. Is that YOURS or your daddy's??? Yeah, yeah, whatever. Your obviously pissing people off here.

Okay, back on track

IB4200's!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, that' the ones.
Unless your going "lo"....as in Lipo.....

Safety first. Offshore. Always safety first. Unless we're gonna strap rocket engines to one of these.

You have good temps on them at 100F. At 4A or so, that's good. How many mAh were you able to get? Just curious.

Speaking of strapping rockets, remember "my Kyosho brushless experiments" I plan to strap one of the rockets I bought for New Years to the Kyosho Sunstorm 600 and launch it across the lake. I will video it.
