    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I'm sure it's a nice charger. For me I'd be maxing it out parallel charging 2 6S 5000's. But if you don't need over 20 amps, it would be great.

    It's neat to see something different for a change though.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Sorry for your bad luck.;) It's looking like helicopters for me Saturday and my Pilot Edge on Sunday. I'm looking forward to wringing out the new motor in the Edge that I couldn't do last Sunday because the rudder servo failed on my first flight.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I got a late start tonight since I had to help my brother put brakes on his Jeep Liberty. Parking brakes on a rear disc brake setup suck.:mad: Once that ignorance was over I finished up my charger case. I'm still planning on adding at least one fan, but since the weather has cooled off I think...

    I wish it was a three day, I could use one. The weather here this weekend is forecast to be about perfect. Low 70's, sunny and a 5 MPH wind. Experience tells me they'll be wrong, but I guess we'll see.;)

    Servos

    I have some 8611's to send in for service too. They're 11 years old, but work perfectly. I'm wondering what it's going to cost to see if it's worth doing.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I replaced the Hitec 7955tg that went south on the rudder of my Edge and now I working on a new charger case. My old case was great, but way too big and heavy. We always joke at the field that I could leave it on the tailgate, drive off and have it fall off in the highway and get hit by a car...

    Larry, get yourself one of these or something similar. There cheap and can save your airplane. I got in the habit of always checking packs right before I strap them in. That way you know you put a charged battery in and not the one you just flew with. They will tell you total voltage, cell...

    Larry, can you give us a short rundown of your setup? Motor, ESC, battery. Also did you check the battery with a LiPo checker to see how much capacity was left? I'm not an electric expert by any means, but I do fly helicopters so I am fairly familiar with it. They may be someone here that can help.

    David do they look like this? I was getting these when trying to respond to something in Stangflyer's JTEC Pitts thread. I could post as long as I wasn't quoting something in the thread.
