Mrc 977

Anyone use this? Any good? I don't remember hearing anything bad about them. I really like the option of being able to charge 2 packs at once, and I'm thinking about getting LiPo for a receiver pack. Anything else I need to switch to LiPo?

ive heard people use balencers like this soemtimes but im not sure if you "need" it

and what size lipo would fit in the battery pack area? a flat one right?

Not sure what the balancer is, but you need a lipo regulator. Lipos can put out a lot more voltage than you reciever can handle.

a balancer makes sure that each cell gets an equal distribution of the charge, and yes u need a regulator, novak makes a nice one

Thats what I thought. Thanks

Well finally got it today after a week of the post office screwing around with it.

So far it is pretty good. I'll have a better review later on. The only thing I don't like about it now is every different battery you charge you have to change the settings, (no memory) and the fan on the charger is pretty loud.
