  • Crane Stock external battery

    Hi Guys.OK We all know there is limited space inside a crane stock if You want bigger batteries but what is to say the batteries must be inside it? Has any one found a way of mounting a battery on the outside on the stock? There is a good flat area to mount a say flat 7.4 35c LIPO.It just means making some kind of housing tube and possibly extending wiring. Any input please?

    Some crane stocks have slightly larger tubes. If you've got one of those then you can fit a buffer tube lipo in each one then plug them together in parallel. That gives you 2900mah of capacity and loads of current overhead.

        Nuprol buffer tube batteries. 1450mah,7.4v lipo. And if they fit then 18650 high discharge ones should fit, which means you can get up to 5000mah. Check the stock though, as some only have tubes large enough for the crane type nicads.

          Quick note, the Nuprol batteries state 1450mah but are actually about 1050mah in use. Still, that set up lasted my son for an all day skirmish. I'm going to order some Sony VTC 5 18650 cells and make up some buffer tube packs which should be good for 20-25A as a single and 40+A as the two parallel packs.
