No charge I bought the packs had them built and then got really busy an had no choice but to let them sit...
I won't be buying lipo or anything heh.. I'll just sell the completely unused car if this one pack I bought is dead.
At this point I have spent about $2500 on all of my gear and not used any of it for one minute.
Soo at this point all I want is to run the car for 5 minutes on my street.
And then smash it all with my real car

Ok so the new stick pack I bought is charging.
What MV peak detection thing should it be set at? right now it's set at 5mv 30 for the pack.
How long should it take to charge a 3300mah pack at 5amps???
How do I know if the pack is fully charged or just false peaking??

What should the delta peak be set at!??!
Honestly I hate this shit.. Never spending any money on electric again.. Nitro only.
I'm soo bitter I don't even wanna make the car run.

Some threads say 3mv per battery some say 10mv ?!?!?!!

Welp I give up.
The battery because it's a stick and not a side by side doesn't even fit.
I am not going to be able to put a lipo back either..
The T2R has a metal piece that goes right over the last/first battery and curves to fit the battery... lipo packs are flat and won't fit this curve..
Ahh well..
I'm out.

There is a LIPO Ftment thread somewhere on this forum where you can find if your car can hold a Lipo or not and if you need to do extra modifications.
I havent had a T2R or any Xray for that matter, but I noticed (on a picture) you can allways tape the battery in using glassfiber tape, the cutouts for the tape are there.
Cant you just flip the battery hold-down strap with the flat surface over the battery, thats how you could fit a stickpack in a TC3 back in the day.
