supralover72 02.22.2008 06:13 PM

vids ASAP

supralover72 02.25.2008 04:29 PM

lol, guess what came yesterday!!!! My hyperon! I'll get the pics up soon. Ain't got time now, but it is SWEET! The screen is backlit! Only bad thing is no instructions. If anyone can link me to some, that'd be great.

Made a little progress on the lipo holder, but it was the wrong size. I'm still waiting for the lipos and have limited aluminum, so I'm going to wait until I get them.

Thanks for the interest!

cool man. That's very similar to my set-up.

You're going to love the Neu energy hard case lipos. Those things are so versatile. I use them for 4 different cars and trucks. And chances are, they will be ROAR legal very soon.

supralover72 02.26.2008 08:27 PM

Nice! Thanks for the link DickyT!

And rschoi, thanks a lot for the info. I'm hoping to use one for my T4. It's so funny how similar we think.

Still worth getting a lipo sack... :)

supralover72 02.27.2008 04:24 PM

Not for 30 bucks, I have house insurance, lol. ;)

So My lipos came, no one was home to sign, so they didn't. The next day they came, same problem as they switched times on me! So today, they come, and we sign the back of the note saying no sig is needed, it's ignored and now we have to pick it up! :( Oh well. Here's the hypieron

PICS!:

Very nice charger! I just picked one up myself this week from www.holmeshobbies.com and can't wait for my Lipo's to arrive.

Have a link to those Neu packs? I hadn't planned on using hard case packs, but one of our local tracks won't let you in the building w/ the soft sided packs?:no:

EDIT: Nevermind, I found them and ordered 2 packs myself!:yipi:

supralover72 03.06.2008 09:30 PM

Good luck with those! Thanks! Expect a little waiting time since neu failed to tell me that they are out of stock and they're waiting for more from china, so since it's been 3 weeks for me without a single email and the only way for me to find out is by calling them, I would assume you would have to wait soon sadly. I'd call and ask to make sure.

Yeah, that would be nice to have known.

But $190.00 shipped for what is basically a 4c 5000 pack is pretty good price considering the other 4c packs I was looking at were all $230.00 to $260.00.

hi, where are you guys finding these neu energy 2s2p packs? i cant seem to find them anywhere. and im also going to buy the hyperion 0606i charger, what balancer plug will i need for these batteries?

xcntrk 04.01.2008 08:17 AM

^^The NeuEnergy packs us a Kokam balancer terminal. I think you can use the appropriate Hyperion balancer adapter that plugs right into your charger:

Man don’t order directly from Neu electronics! They’ve jerked me around for over a month with their intolerable customer service, terrible lack of communication, and unwillingness to issue refunds. Their inexcusable sales practices forced me to open an dispute with the Paypal resolution center. They’ve had $200 dollars of my money for over a month, have not provided me any product, and so far are refusing to issue any refund! How can you stay in business with that kind of behavior!?????

supralover72 04.01.2008 03:02 PM

Yea, same thing happened to me but they canceled my order and refunded me. I ended up ordering a 4s pack through mike. Still a neu, but with mike's great customer service.

xcntrk 04.01.2008 04:21 PM

So what did you use for a Kokam adapter? The Hyperion balancer adapter, or something else?

blueb8llz 04.01.2008 05:56 PM

perfect! even better. i didnt know mike had them neu packs for sale. good thing i didnt order directly from neu yet. oh, and for the balance taps is this the correct one...its free shipping too!

xcntrk 04.01.2008 08:04 PM

^that's the same tap as above. But $1 dollar cheaper and w/free shipping ;)
