It's odd to me how such an unstable substance runs my cars.. is used to stabilize mental patients ... and causes such trauma on our forums .

I've fit one of these new packs in my 12R5 and the wires come out right where my GTB-4 is. And It's not pretty. Looping Wires all over or hanging them off my chassis isn't my style. And I don't disrespect anyone here or anywhere actually. Seems to me every other manufacturer is using the barrel connectors. So why does SMC have to be difficult !? Remember all the different connectors on servos and speedos we used to have to get the right ends on to plug in to our recievers ? Now everyone is using a derivative of the Futaba "F" connector. Universal connectivity ! It's a beautiful thing!
We aren't being DIFFICULT, we are being DIFFERENT. Big difference.

Hey man.... I get the dog! Think about it.
I'd like some SMC packs for my pan cars,
but now I will wait for the sheep to flock.
I will wait till ROAR figures out what they want us to run and wait for some one else to do it the way I want it. And run round cells till then.
By then the industry will have 35 or 40c packs and this so called dead horse will arize its ugly head once more . No matter really , the fact that you guys are making single cell packs will show others that there is a market for them and will have to follow suit. But with DIFFERENT connectors.

Sorry for infultrating the brown nose channel!

I think the main concern is with repeated slight overcharging. Maybe the margin of error there is still safe. Dunno for sure. It's sketchy as hell to test it, though.

It's good that racers are scared of Lipos as if they weren't they would be doing all kinds of stupid things to try and get the edge. The ROAR overcharge test is much tougher than having a charger go .10 over 8.40
Bottom line use a Lipo sack and set your charger propely and everything will be fine.

Anyway, I think we've all made our points. I'll get out of here before it's too late! :-)

with all the charger talk, was wondering if anyone hs been using the Hyperion Duo and there thoughts on it???
#1484
We use the Hyperion Duo to charge the packs then we use the GFX to dischareg them. They have been working very well and some days we charge 80+ packs and they get the job done.
If you get one make sure to get the proper board for the balance conectors use don the packs you have. The boards are 7.00 dollars each.
