PTW 11.1v lipo batteries and chargers....

[Mike581]

Ok so with a PTW on the way I need some batteries, I do use 7.4 lipo at the mo but with a turnigy 2s/3s charger.
So I need to know which batteries I should be looking out for, 11.1v to fit into the stock, stock tube types preferable to stock ones? Been looking at getting a few 11.1v 1200 20c....
Also I'm guessing I need a bit more advanced balance charger, looking at the IMAX B6, any good?

IMAX B6 is fantastic, just got one myself. As for lipos, you will need crane stock batteries as the wizardry sits in the buffer tube and takes up a fair amount of room, unless you spend 100 quid or so on the cut down circuit board.

Just put the lipo in the side of the stock, there is more than enough room, then you can have one each side and just swap which one is connected when they need changing.

OR You can have Tac mod the power board to make it shorter so the lipo will fit inside it.

Yeah was going to put them in the sides of the stock, I'm guessing a 1200 will fit in there?
Think I'll get the b6 charger, not keen that it doesn't come with an ac power adaptor though!
