Dear All I live in Europe (I specify that because import from USA is even harder than import from China) but HH and HK GB and TT should have a European distributors
I want to move from Liion to Lipo for some of my cars.
I have 2S lipos on SCX24 with a small USB charger which do a good job and output 2A.
I also have WLToys 12428 with 2s LIion with USB Chargers which also do a good job.
I never tried to charge the lipos with lion charger but I tryed to use my LIION batteries 12428 (1500mAh for 15C) on the brand new EXC AXE & BRUTUS (with proper Deans EC3 connector) with very bad results: at 75% of power they last 2/4 mins (like 50% power with 100% of throttle gain) and 1 minute or so with 100% throttle.
When throttle is settled at 50 or 75% the brakes don't run at all (no way I tryed every combination possible) and we are stunting in a very small room so lot of crashes.
So I decided to move on lipos. I dont have too much budged and I don't know what to choose. Could you suggest to me a brand with is the right balance between quality and price for soft cases 2s lipos?
Which parameter should I know to not damage chargers, esc and batteries due that my lipos should be used both on AXE/BRUTUS (60A ESC) and on 12428 WLToys (unknown Amp ESC)
At the moment I would like to use the chargers for lipos which were stock on SCX24 whch are 2A output if I don't risk to damage batteries or chargers and if the only problem is to wait longer.
Instead of purchase a 5000 mAh (on the AXE box is written that with 5000 mAh run time should be about 15 minutes) I would prefere a couple of 3500 mAh so they shoud fit in the WLToys battery case, avoid to over run with over heating the 12428 and if one battery have a problem I still have another to play waiting for replacement. plus they are lighter.
In case I will find very good offer and I will move to a charger too which one do you suggest to me which can charge two batteries 2s at the same time, which is a good compromise of quality and price and the more thing is safe avoiding as much as possible fire or explosion? Someone suggested me to check it has "storage function" which I don't know what is and I dont know when to use it.
Thanks for help
