Help me Spend my Christmas Money
 
I have some Money set aside for R/c and I am looking for a complete system to put in to my g2r, I am looking for everything, esc, motor, bats, and anything else that is needed.. My budget is about $500 I hope this is doable.

Any help is greatly appreciated

LiPo or NiMh?

Feigao 8XL (C version or Wanderer) $90
Mamba Max $140 or Warrior 9920 $150
That leaves about $265 for batteries (and a charger?)
If you want Lipo and need a charger, the Super Brain 989 is $140
Which leaves $125 for the batteries, and that isn't enough for a proper LiPo setup

Yeah, if you don't need a charger it's a different bag.

lipo of nimh? next Q..

thndrckn 12.23.2006 12:01 PM

I would like Lipo but then again Im not planning on doing much racing so... Im not sure.. everyone seems to be going lipo.

thndrckn 12.27.2006 02:06 PM

is the Triton 2 a good charger for lipos? or should I look at something else?

jhautz 12.27.2006 03:30 PM

triton 2 works with lipo. If you can get it for an upgrade deal it should be fine.

neweuser 12.27.2006 03:46 PM

Also, if you're going Lipo, you will need a balancer and possibly a lvc

coolhandcountry 12.27.2006 08:23 PM

WEll if you don't have to get a charger. You have enough for the lipo.

you could also try those a123 cells. its 200 bucks for a charger and 2 batts... im not sure how these would work but it charges them in 15 min and they have like a 7-10 min runtime. pretty cool to me.

bigboi146 12.29.2006 03:01 PM

Anyone have a link to the a123 cells im really interested in them.
