Can I plug in immedeatly or do I need to wait for it to cool and stablize?
I use two specific packs when at the track (practicing or racing). Usually when I go practice, this is for a minimum of an 8 hour session and those two packs never get a break. I have temped the two Lipo's in the duration of the abuse that I provide to these poor batteries, they have never exceeded 85 degrees. Hope that helps
