FlightPower Lipo?
 
Hi,

I dont know much about lipo packs yet and I was wondering if this is a good pack for a stock TRex450SE v2:

FlightPower 2150 mAh 3s 1P 11.1V Li-Po battery

I think I read somewhere that FlightPower are great packs, but I'm not sure. Is it a good pack? What is a good price for a pack like that?

Also, will the balance/charge connector that comes with this pack fit on my Align balancer/charger (the one that comes with the Trex450) ?

Thanks

Take a look at www.airthunder.com. If what they promise is true (check the videos) then these should interest you and in fact every other electric model flyer. [X(]

Flight Power and Thunder Power are both excellent batteries. Well proven, good warranty, etc. But both brands are pretty expensive. Still, they're hard to beat...

These Air Thunder and Kong Power "run 'em til they're dead" batteries are getting good reviews, but they havent been out too long, so no one knows for sure how they will compare in the long run. They do look promising for sure!

Air Thunder uses the same cells as Kong Power. I've been very impressed with the consistency of the power over the duration of a charge with my one Air Thunder 3S 2200. Make no mistake, though: my two FP EVO25 3S 2170 and one TP Extreme 3S 2200 packs have also been great.

TheFP Evo 2170 packs are great batteries. Thats all I use. The Balance lead is the same as Thunder power but is different than Align packs. You can get an adapter.
