I ordered three new 3S 1550mah 45C packs for my ZMR, giving me five 1550 packs. I also have a few 1300mah packs. I was surprised that the dimensions of the packs are so different. I didn't notice that when I ordered them but when I went to the BuddyRC battery page, the size of the 30C packs are longer and slimmer than the 45C packs. The 45C packs are a bit wider and much shorter. Although....flight time is flight time, so I'm a happy dude. Hopefully the rain that's being forecasted today will hold off.
Here's a pic of my batteries. You'll see the 30C pack that I had, already, is longer than my new 45C packs

Re: Got some new Glacier Packs for my ZMR
With the power system you have Derek, 45c may not be enough. 
Once you progress to prolonged full throttle runs and trying power loops the voltage sag creeps in fairly quick.

Re: Got some new Glacier Packs for my ZMR
Well, for now, they are probably gonna be better than the two 30C packs that I have. I'm focusing on throttle management and rudder control right now. Probably not a lot of full throttle

My Multistar packs die in less than four mins at race speeds.
I need to find some better packs.

Mine too, I need some real ones, cheap HK batteries serve their purpose but I need some higher c ones.Lee wrote:My Multistar packs die in less than four mins at race speeds.
