Lipo for newbies
 

So I'm starting to understand lipo but I still have a lot to learn. Can someone point me in the right direction such as a web site or something that explains everything lipo? Like what the benefits are, what all the numbers and letters mean and stuff.

Thanks.

This will get you started -

Thats a good start thanks, anyone got anything else?

This will teach you more then you will ever need to know about the cells.

Try this easy to understand.

click on rc lipo batteries under accessory info tab on left side

^^^ Thats pretty good Steve, nice find. Like this says if you want more of the physics side, go to batteryuniversity.com (link in included in the above article).

RCGroups also has a thorough reference section and extensive discussion on lipo in their batteries and chargers thread under Aircraft-Electric -General forums but you may have to do a little digging.

Just what I was looking for. The rchelicopterfun.com was very good.

Thanks, I think I understand a lot more now.
