USA warehouse now open. Our USA warehouse is now open! Low cost shipping and an ever growing variety make ordering from the US warehouse even better value!
Just add the quantity you need and go to checkout. You will have options for shipping, choose the cheapest. I've found that ordering batteries is cheaper when you have only batteries in your order.
When the battery is fully charged the voltage is actually 8.4V. I have tried running 5V servos on 8.4V and the results are bad. The servos jitter all the time and get really hot. It's a wonder I didn't burn them. You should connect the battery to the ESC, the ESC will give 5-6 volts (depending on model) to the receiver, which in turn will power the servos at their recommended V rating. If you have a glow engine model you should get a special on board receiver battery pack that is designed for this.
How can I hook up this battery to the HK orange Rx 415? The 415 Rx has a funny adapter I've never seen before? It's not a just... It's called a micro molex???
Sub-micro servos and ESCs usually have this type of connector since this Rx is supposed to be used in micro models. The connector is called Micro JST, but sadly HK does not offer such connectors separately.
i tried to send hobbykings customer service a email and it comes back not deliverable so how else do you get a answer fropm hobbyking cuz the phone reps. dont seem to know nothing nor does the online chat personal they just have a computer to check your account and cannot answer tech or logistics questions they just change or cancel orders any otherwise your S.O.L. trying to get a problem solved and now you can't get a email to who ever takes care of the major problems either.. hobbyking I.M.H.O. your slip sliding away in to the worse hobby supplier there is...you should run a customer satifaction poll every three to six month just to see how much you slipping under with your customerb satifaction.. it just might make you a far better company than you are now altho that would'nt take much at this point
i used once the "live chat". It was not very easy but finaly it have been efficient, they solved my problem.
You had a problem with a flightmax 500mAh 2S lipo ?
I bought at least 10 of them since 3 years and never had any issue
the only issue that i have is after i bought the battery they canceled my order for the plane i was gonna use it in.. i have about forty different planes and none of them use this small of battery
This item is a few dollars, why do you need to get so wound up over it? If it doesnt work as you expected, dump it and get something else, will save you a lot of aggrevation and heart desease in the long run. Anyway I got one and it's just as advertised, no problems on my part.
Of course! This battery is able to deliver about 10 Amps (20C * 0,5 Amps).
BUT!: Take care of the Voltage you need! this one will deliver between 7,4V and 8,4V depending on the charging state.

It is 20c rates wich means a maximum output of 20x0.5=10 amps. Unless your are using servo's wich draw 3 amps each, yes. You can use this to power your servo's and receiver.
This is a great battery! I maidened my own design delta wing today with this battery and it was way better than I had imagined. Full score on this one.

Nice battery, only thing i have a problem with is the deans style connector, i have to change it to the JST one, i would have thought that at ten amps max this connector would have been more appropriate

I have been using these Zippy brand 2 cell 500s in many foamies in the last few weeks. They charge up to full capacity each time and don't drop too much under load.
Fully recomended!

I don't understand why you would put a Dean T connector on a 500 mah battery or for that matter on a 800 mah pack. The battery is going to be used on a small plane so why not just put a JST red on there with compatible wire. I replaced all the T connectors and saved 3 gms per pack and it doesn't take up near as much room either.

Excellent! the capacity is really 500mah, and the pack is light and compact. Ideal for my indoor plane.
