I remember the rechargeable batteries we used to get at RadioShack, back in the late 70s early 80s, they were black if memory serves, and they didn't last long at all, and would quickly stop taking a charge. I think the batteries today are a big departure from those. Though I am not sure if that...

I have the GT5, it came with the Gen8 Axe and I really like it. I was looking for something that gave me more options for 4WS, and had a color screen, so I decided to try the RC8X. It will get tested very soon, but after everything I have been told, I am not holding my breath that radio is going...

Haha, that is the exact same BEC I have sitting on the bench, set to install into the Capra.

Same type of circuitry used in modern flashlights, that allows them to keep a constant brightness until the batteries die. Am I right?

There is a few things going on there, to be honest. I have had it too long, and while it hasn't been used on a rig yet it has been opened, and the battery was charged for storage. The second issue is it is the last gift my wife of 26 years purchased for me, and she believed at the time she was...

David, you are helping me so much with this RC8X. Given I have not used it yet, though I did start on the Capra which is going to be the test monkey for that radio. You've been the man leading the way for the rest of us, and it is so very much appreciated that you are sharing your experiences...

To be honest, I have rechargeable Enloop AAs in all of my other transmitters, I simply buy two sets for each transmitter (hoping to find a solution so that I only have one transmitter to worry about), but those Enloop AAs last forever. Whenever I am going to take out one of my rigs, I make sure...

When I got my RC8X, it came in a package deal which included a lipo. Given I have yet to use it, I have put that lipo into storage a couple of times, which I hate doing (maybe faster now, though, with the new discharger and chargers). Whenever it begins to die, I may well think about a lion, it...

I also use the Eneloop Pros (Panasonic), they're great, highly recommended. Only transmitter I have a lipo for is the RC8X, and it is the radiolink branded battery pack. Funny how this is coming up, but I am in the process of searching for a proper lipo charger. But, for double As, I definitely...
