Rx battery set-ups for racing
#1
Well, after I have been looking into what I need to upgrade as far as steering servos, I am looking at the:
Ace1015 Super torque(should do well in CrT)
Transit time: 0.108 sec/deg @ 6V
Torque: 14.5 kg/cm (201.4 oz/in) @ 6V

I am as well going to run Ballistic 2700mah packs, do I really need to run a voltage-regulator? What If i just have two rx packs fully peaked, I will carry Novak Ionic charger w/me as well, Is this voltage-regulator a must have for these power hog servos or can I just be stocked up on a couple rx packs to get me through a day of racing, what do you guys suggest?

I may be missing something here, but a 2700 Mah pack doesn't put out more voltage than a lower Mah pack. The only difference, is the higher Mah batteries last longer. One 2700Mah pack should last a full day of racing EASILY, but having a backup, just in case, wouldn't hurt.
I'll keep my God, my freedom, my guns, and my money. You can keep "THE CHANGE."

Well, I'm aware under normal conditions the pack would survive, but the powerful servos such as the Ace1015 draw a butload of current, thats why I'm asking, to find out if a regulator is necessary for a servo like that Wink

No way do you need 2 reciever packs. I ran a 1200 mah pack with 2 high performance servos and I would have to charge it once during a race day. I am now running a 2700 mah pack with 2 decent servos and can easily go a full race day on a single charge.

No problemo. The only reason some people don't run that large of a capacity pack (running 1600 or so instead) is because the actual pack is larger and many reciever boxes cannot accomodate it. (Maybe weight too but I doubt it.)

yeah, my receiver box for my CrT will accomodate a fairly large pack, at A-main it says I have to lay the Ballistic pack on its side in box before it will fit, I may have to go with the new updated reciever box for the CrT, theres more room for a larger pack, its only like $13.00 Wink

u only need a regulator with lipos. Get a back up pack just in case it wont hurt. The only servos that really draw a ton of current are those gay airtronics ones

HaHa, real funny. I have two of those "gay" Airtronics ones in my STR and I can go all day on a charge with my home made 2200mah Energizer pack Rolleyes

What is it with you and the whole gay thing anyway? lol
