Did anyone else notice the Properchopper style battery holder!!

I talked to Tony about this and he loved the idea... I tried to get ProBoat to name it the "ProperLipo-Holder"... didn't fly!

It's a good idea that is nice insurance against the batteries popping the hatch in a flip.

By the way, when it flips... this boat does SPECTACULAR flips! Especially when it's approaching 70!

Ron... the motor was a Losi Xcelorin 1/8th Scale Buggy Motor, 2400KV, with 4S2P, a Hydra 240, and an ABC 42x55 prop.

maybe 5s2p with a M445 prop on the stock electronics could be mocho!

This came out JUST in Time!!!/......I was going to get the Pursuit...BUT not no more!!!......This bad boy is ON ORDER!!!

I have 2 of these http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...dProduct=11940
Turnigy nano-tech 6000mah 4S 25~50C Lipo Pack

and i have been running them 1 at a time of course in my Stiletto ...now i have the Mystic on the way and the Impulse 31 on Pre order ...Can i use these in all 3 of these boats?...I was concerned about the Mystic because it looks like you need 2 batterys to balance it out....but i couldnt use 2 of these in the mystic could i?

I actually ran this boat with a single 4S pack several times and it works fine. One COULD remove the stud holding the battery hold-down and just use Velcro, or add some tie-down straps as well. With the motor towards the back like it is, and the long, wide, battery trays, getting many different battery configs to balance is doable.

Awesome....Thanx Darin ...So in the Mystic ..i would HAVE to use 2x 7.4 5000ish mAh lipo packs...?

ok cool, im not sure if i should wait to see if it can take 6s before a buy new batteries to run 4s

darin what do you think the speed difference is between 4 s and 6s

[ron1950]

arp...any time u use 6s on a 60amp esc u are asking for trouble.....you might get a strong one and u might get a weak one and have a hand gernade

ok i guess ill just run 2 4s in parallel
will it fit in the boat 2 4s?

Im new to the Battery game could u explain running 2 x 4s in this boat...I have 2 but only run 1 at a time in the stiletto...

One can run either (2) 4S packs wired in parallel or (2) 2S packs wired in series. Both scenarios will produce 14.8 volts (4S total). A third option is to run a single 4S pack as well.

Looks like a very well thought out boat, leaves very little reason for people to be building monos in this size from scratch :D

The offset wet well stuffing box is just amazing on a RTR boat!
