What charger and batteries do you prefer? Anybody here still using the dynamite chargers from horizon hobby?
I did for a while, and started having non-charging issues. The charger would go green, and the battery voltage would measure where expected, but I was only getting a few minutes of run time. If that. That is what started me down this happy modding trail.
I purchased some 3c lipo batteries, thinking I read somewhere that the stock esc and tazer motor could handle it. Apparently I was mistaken. I let the magic smoke out, and didn't have anything to catch it.
When I purchased the batteries, I picked up a charger to match. The tenergy TB6-B. Great charger.
So, I am currently using Floureon 3s 30C batteries. No problems so far. Greatly increased run time over stock setup. Even with a lower capacity. 3000mah vs 5400mah from dynamite nimh.
What have your experiences been? Why did you upgrade?
