You can charge it with 5A, but the best is to charge it with 8A! :)

Well according to the rule of thumb the batteries requirements is set at 8 amperes. HOWEVER! if you decide to keep charging it with your old charger! the that will really extend the life of your battery! Now please don't forget to set the battery to store charge b4 you put it away for the week or the winter! other wise you will have a balloon in stead of a battery! I have to learn that the hard way!

Because my 5A charger become so hot I have decided to buy a new bigger charger for this big battery. Is there any good charger that has the sensors needed for safe charging so I can just plug it in and be happy? Can you explane what b4 is and how I shuld store it the best way? Kind regards Joakim

Well I have an Hyperion! it connects to the computer and allow you to charge anything under the son! but you need to make sure you have a nice and juicy power supply, I have a 28V /24 Amps! this allow me to do any thing that I may want! but truly the sweeter thing about it is that you can set setting and programs for every single battery! Example will be wen you charge 4 lipos of 14.8v each at 3000 Milliamps! you can make sure that your amperage at this point 12 amps is set properly, basically there is no limitations to what kind of battery you can charge!

No temp protect integrated. Your best bet is to use an external sensor. You can get a temp and voltage sensor here all in one. PRODUCT ID: HKVT-Monitor

MOst ESC's have a settable "voltage cutoff"

Hadirabie, this battery is 2cm taller than the 5000 25c i use in mi 600

172 Height-B(mm) 69 Width-C(mm) 52 this one
150 Height-B(mm) 50 Width-C(mm) 52 actuallt my setup

You can measure the inner the distance in the canopy.

Maybe dremel work may needed and patience, but the flying time is worth.

Also the tail servo will need install near the tail rotor for CG

Hello,

........the weight will be the biggest problem, 1256 gram. A normal 600 lipo is around 750/800grams.

 ecosniper 105 points

the weight is not a problem if you dont want a steroided 3d machine. i know that because i have a 11 kilos 830mm helicopter and flies scale.

Hadirabie. If you manage well the distribution of the gear to have good CG, i can assure you that the heli will fly very good in the sport envelope.

Putting the tail servo near the tail end is a good way to go!

Sorry, but a 830mm helicopter will not even fly with 11kgs. Maybe a 1830mm would fly. But who needs such a huge battery in such a small helicopter?

 ecosniper 105 points

Wilhelm. Don worry i will help you.

830mm helicopter means 830mm blades Heli, so 830 plus 830 plus mainhead (about 18cms) is 1,84 meter rotor disc diameter.

A guy looking for extended flyin time maybe at lower headspeed could want a large battery.
