This from a professional who KNOWS how to charge, discharge, and maintain his packs....

Mike Dumas used the same battery three times during the vegas race in his 2nd and 4th qualifiers.....and in the main.....

SMC has just come on here telling you they send out two packs per race per class...

Batteries sent to Billy for Japanese Nats....one class....8 packs....one for each run.

Yup....Billy and I are lying....


Later EddieO
run time?? I've been running 4 cells with the Novak 3.5 and a very small receiver pack and I have no problems making run-time i can get almost 6 minutes ,(running 3800's) maybe the runtime issue is with brushed motors.
