You want the 5cell that is three with two on top,the two main types are flat (all in a row or the three and two),venom do a nice 1200mah pack quite good value as well |

hi buggyrunner,iv got the ripmaxpro peak ex,i paid 50quid 2 years ago,you get the leads to a 12v battery and two leads to go to your battery,but you dont get and plugs,if you go to a good hifi shop and ask for some bannan plugs,they will be for the charge leads to go into the charger,you then need to make ones to charge the hump pack up,pat will tell you what he did as he did mine,if i were you i would get a charger that does lypo aswell,then you wont have to get another one when they bring out lypos for buggys |

Pat does your hump pack last you all through race evening without having to charge in between? |

A picture of my charge lead and remote crystal holder on the hyper,when racing i use a bit of bluetac just to keep them in place aswell. it saves having to open the radio box up to either chare or change a crystal...

Where did you get the remote crystal lead from? i have the hyper 7 pro uk and changing the crystal is a 5 min job! does not sound long but is is when you need to change crystals at a race meeting. |
