Right guys n gals. Getting back into electric racing for the winter as nitro 8th outside (on road) is seriously wet . Got a good list so far of what i'm going to buy. R5.1 (ofcourse), KO 951 servo, LRP SXX and 5.5 combo. Now batterys.... been looking into getting Lipo's.

Been looking at the SMC cells above. Now how many of these do you need for a race day? Would one be sufficient? I know that you need a Lipo charger but would you need to discharge before you recharged them or can you just charge them up without 'maintainance' ? For a charger would you recommend a Much More charger? Would i need any balancing equipment or any further connections? Or would you recommend anything with a inbuilt balancer???

Any help on the battery/charger questions would be greatly appreciated.

Having finger raped many gorillas over the years (mainly ex girlfriends) i can honestly say that it is not as dangerous as once thought.
