Hello everyone!
I’ve had my Swift 16 about a little over a year now and I’m just getting to realize that my 12 cell hydride isn’t doing me any justice. I’m not totally new to the hobby and I have a grasp on normal flight but I’m lost with all this battery lingo. I understand that a LiPo is the way to go but no clue as to what all the numbers and letters mean. I’ve read up a little on it but I’m a rock so please break it down in lamens terms. It would be nice if I could just walk in a hobby store but its more convenient for me to just order one online if I only knew what I was looking for. Help me understand. Better yet, give me your opinion that best suits a Swift that is already equipped with Century’s Outrunner Brushless motor and Align 100 amp brushless ESC. I’ve seen several on the web but I’m not sure if I’m going to fry anything.

Thanks

When in doubt, pull out. And that applies to everything.
