I am running my MG with dual 4s batts using parallel connection and really have no complaints in the way it runs, but recently I was curious of how it will run if the weight was a bit lighter. I've always felt that my 4s 5000mah Nano-techs were a bit heavy, so when I saw Leader hobby's sale on Win-max Nano-Platinum 2s 5200mah, I grabbed the opportunity in ordering 4 pieces. Their low price was enough for me to gamble on their quality.

Im charging early this week to test these batts on Sunday - so im crossing my fingers that atleast the run would be decent. Since I'll be using 2 x 2s this week, I also made a "series" connection with 6mm bullet connectors.

Just bear in mind that long leads give higher cap temps.By taking 1.5 inches of each side of ESC wire I had almost 2 volts less ripple.Thats what the caps deal with,is voltage ripple.JMO

Hey Macdon, When I run 2 2S lipos I dont use any jumpers or connectors!!! I run them in series just like you.

On my SM29, I'm using 2x2S lipos in hardcase, the wires are plug-in type. What I did was, I soldered 4mm male bullets to my esc cables ( + & - wires) I also made a cable with 4mm male bullets on both ends. The connection is like this, The POSITIVE wire of my esc goes to the POSITIVE lead of Lipopack #1, Then the NEGATIVE lead of lipo#1 connects to the POSITIVE lead of Lipo#2 via the series cable then finally the NEGATIVE lead of lipo#2 connects to the NEGATIVE wire of the esc. This way, I only used a total of 4 male bullet connectors and a short cable. Lower current loss and lower temps on the connectors and caps. Not so clear right? I'll try and post pics later. Hehehe!

You got it man.That's how I did my mini-mono 2x2s in series 4s1p.The Fightercat is coming together.Thought I lost a thrust bearing,been driving me nuts for the past day.I guess I had one out for the mock up because I found a pair NIP in my hardware drawer.Haha

Macdon,

Remember your favorite mini cat? Well, I found its Big Brother. Here's a couple of links.

That's gotta leave a mark.That's a good size hull to flip.

Sorry Mardon, Stephen, Shawn, Jerry, and Jaso. I know it's been a while since I've posted anything but I've been real busy lately. Trying to get a home business going takes a lot of time. Glad to see all of you seem to have had a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thanks Stephen for posting those last 2 videos.
