Hi all,

What kind of batterypack would be good for a .60 size heli(Raptor) with one digital servo(9253) three 9202's and one standard servo?

I prefer a 4-cell batterypack that can be quickcharged!

Thanks,

Gee I can't believe so many people looked at this but no one offered any advice.

Anyway, I guess you are asking about what Mah pack?? Well, I would suggest somewhere in the teens, like 1800 I guess. I'm running an 1100 in my R30 (2 9202's, 2 3001, and 1 high speed tail servo) and it's been flawless. I would think an 1800 should do you just fine and not be too hard to get charged. Some guys are running some high numbers of Mah packs (3000?), but your charger has to be able to handle that high of a Mah to begin with. The only other piece of advice I could offer is make sure to get Sanyo cells and take care of them. No fast charges when you first get them, charge them nice and slow the first few times at least. If not all the time. I admit I charge mine with a field charger every few times, some days are jsut too nice to go home But the more you refrain from this and take care of them the longer they will last. Hope some of this helped.

For simplicity sake and durability I would stick wiht Nicads. NiMh cells are lighter and hold more charge, but they require care in charging, don't like to be discharged fast, and are generally not as durable as Nicads. Just get you some Sanyo Nicads, an onboard or handheld battery monitor ( I use an onboard led style monitor), and rip it up.

WTF is an accupack?

Check out the 4 cell 1700mah nicad pack at helihut.

Light and loads of juice.

It's the best heli pack going (IMHO).
