Yeah I only choose hobby city...
Not flying $2000 aircraft tho, so my $29 lipo's work great

Theres some really light small batterys for my fox but theyre $25 each
Same Mah @ hobby city is $7

Depends how rich you are
I have other mates who ONLY fly with Evo Flightpower lipos (I think thats them)...

Just seen your FJ setup....
Perhaps the Rhino 40c lipos at hobby city... I wouldnt go any less "C" with that much power unless you pair up some 1200mah??

Another edit... just noticed hobby city has 40c zippy lipos too!
Cant hurt to try them 1st before you spend a fortune on the others.

Let me know if you need more details, heaps of stuff in the last couple pages of the build thread.
How about i give you the $200 and you get the stuff for me
I need a muck about plane to show the boys at LARCS that FPV is safe and totally controllable

Geoff,

Mate i source most of my batteries through either Budget Hobbies in Capalaba or through the net. Lipos i generally get here but the rx packs mainly get from the states/china.

The Het typhoon motors are really good motors. the 2w20 will only need a 60A speedy running a 4.75 square APC prop. The reason i know is because i have been around a mate who flys voodoo 400 pylon racers. if you want more info i can probably help you out there.

Hehe Bindle...
We need to meet up sometime, I flew my fox down at LARCS not long ago, the day we were looking for the downed pylon racer actually (never found )
Gave Michael from WiredRC a fly... he loved it

Ill be doing a job early tomorrow down the gold coast, taking the fox...
Not sure how busy the beach is but I might just fly it anyway hehe
Might get some nice chicky babes, although they will just be a blur :P

We'll see how the wind is when I knock off.

We have been meaning to catch up but havent had the chance, or i'm too lazy possibly. If I am going to be at LARCS it will be on a Sunday or a Monday generally. That swamp to the right of the strip is very notorious for eating planes and not giving them back
