Hello, Recently I checked all my lipo bags and was shocked how many they are. I have the theory, that RC-addiction can be measured in the amount of batteries somebody has. So.... How many Lipo batteries do you have? 1s,2s,3s,4s...etc I think a lot of people are really intersted to see how...

So a bit over a month ago I got a message on here from someone at Banggood asking if I'd be interested in reviewing a battery charger. I gave him my usual warning that I can't promise a positive review and there are any issues with what they send me or it turns out to be junk I'm going to say...

Ok so I just pulled out my toolbox and knocked over an old unused lipo without a connector on it. The wires shorted instantly and I heard it fizzing violently and went to about 3x its size in like 15 seconds. I sprinted to the balcony and put it there in the likely event that it spontaneously...

Hey guys. If you've ever seen MyGeekShow with Trent, you may know that he used NCR18650B lithium ion batteries in his wings. His packs had 75% more capacity than lipos for the same weight, but unfortunately were expensive and hard to make. Today he released a video introducing Titan batteries...

Hi all, I just finished my first quadcopter build today. I charged my Turnigy Nano-Tech 1300mah 3s 45c-90c LiPo on a Turnigy Accucell 6 and started messing around with the quad. I only took it a few feet off the ground for only seconds at a time, so I didn't think to much of the battery level. I...

Hi all, I'm new on this forum :D and I immediately have something to share. It's my LiPo watch app. I recently turned it into freeware, so it's now available for free on the iOS app store (link). It lets you log the cycles of your LiPo batteries, and it will remind you when a battery is stored...
