Title: suitable lipo for RDS 8000, general question Post by: teamnamibia on August 02, 2014, 02:53:52 PM Hey guys
Could anybody please give me the rule of thumb for Transmitter lipo packs? I have a RDS 8000 and wondering if my 8000mah, 30 c, 3s lipo will work or if it will fry my tx(due to the discharge rate)? any reliable packs out there?

You have to maintain the right voltage that's it.

8000mah? Will it fit inside the battery compartment? It won't fry your Tx. Only problem(?) is that if you use it for 2 hours every Sunday, it will require recharging only after about 6 months! Your Tx current drain is under 200ma. So even a 2650mah will give you 10 hours of flying before recharge Title: Re: suitable lipo for RDS 8000, general question Post by: veloci on August 03, 2014, 11:58:31 PM Absolutely Iyer sir! ;)
