    Lipo noob question.....

    so ive been thinking about converting over to lipo for a while but i have no clue what i am looking at. can you guys educate me?

    whats with the 2s1p 25c numbers? i have no clue what it

    what can i use with a stock SV27 setup? with the ammo?

    thats all i have atm...ill probably have more once i get some answers...

    2s1p 25c 3300mah lipo

    2s
    1s is equal to one cell of 3.7 volts, so 2s is equal to 2 cells in series for 7.4 volts

    1p
    Is how many cells are in parallel, so 2p would double the amp output for 2 cells in parallel.

    25c is a multiplier for the "max amps rating".

    25c (times)mah rating/1000 = max amps rating

    25 (X) 3300 / 1000 = 82.5 max amps rating

    then you take this and multiply it by how many cells series cells are in parallel (2p).

    82.6 (X) 2p = 165 max amps rating.

      what would be 14cell GP3300 's max amp rating?

      so the (x)s part, is the voltage which = number of cells for nimh?

      i was looking at IB3600 or higher (most likely 14 cells), but was looking for lipos also. what would be equivalent or better?

        in theory, the easiest conversion for the sv would be a pair(2) of 2s lipo packs with deans plugs. HOWEVER since the esc on the super vee isn't really setup for lipos you should have an external low voltage cutoff device between the lipos and the esc as a precution against over draining them.

          will a jeti navy 600 esc, rc hydros and a astroflight 212d work with lipos? brushed motor esc's.
