Making a reciver pack

[PiErow]

How do you make a reciver pack? I want to use 1/18 gp1100 cells so i practically have unlimited run time. How do i do this?

 

[vbgagnon]

That would be bad ass. I'd do it if I knew how.

This is a good reason to get this months Xrc mag.
There is a 3 page spread on how to do just this task.

Man i have to go to barns and nobles. I want to subscribe to that anyways. Is it one their site?

I use NiMH 2100 Mah AA sized batts. Lasts me all day long in my savage and my buggy.

This going to go in a beetle!

What size batts (AA, A, SC, etc) would I need to make a rc10gt pack? I'm lost on which size the batts need to be cuz on ebay they are all different sizes....

Heres a SWEET site that allows you to make custom packs and it gives you a quote at the end of how much it will cost! Also you can then buy the pack there... Custom Pack Maker

Hey guys I have a surpluss supply of Rayovac AA rechargeables 1800 mah. Could I make a reciever pack with these? If I were to use 5 and get 6volts would it be as good as my venom 1200mah pack?

most rx packs are 2/3 A i believe

 

[Nathan_454]

thats a rpretty cool website... there prices are reasonable too

 

[Buggyracer28]

Yeah, thats why I like it too... the problem is they are all out of most of the good packs

 

[Nathan_454]

Yeah i noticed that... you can pick up a good 1100 mah pack on ebay for cheap. i think the seller is onlybatterypacks or something like that?

 

[Buggyracer28]

yeah... I love them. I have a rx pack that I bought from them and its the only pack i have. I'm probably gonna end up buying another 1 from them unless i make a better 1 for cheaper.

 

[Nathan_454]

yeah i personally dont have anything from them but i have heard nothing but good things... I need to get one from them to find out for myself... they are probably no better then my 35 dollar orion hump packs. lol

 

[Buggyracer28]

you're orion packs are better... think about it. How can a $16 pack be better than a $35 pack? better batteries.

 

[Nathan_454]

yeah but i dont think that the orions are anything special. they work good though dont get me wrong.
