Returning to RC Lipo advice
Haven't raced for 7 years due to having kids, still got my B4 which going to carry on with initially and brushless esc/motor etc.
But I'm going to need new batteries, I see it's all lipo now, seems to be so much choice. Can anyone recommend decent value lipo battery for club racing. I take it you need just 2 packs? Also will need a new lipo charger, again what should I go for that isn't too expensive but not cheap rubbish?

Hi,
If there is enough time between rounds you can get away with one lipo battery. They are not like the old cells, they can be re-charged multiple times a day. (Two will make it easier / less of a rush to get things charged up.) Charger lots of options. If you are starting off, one that works on 12v and mains (built-in) is ideal. Something like this for a charger is a good option: http://www.cmldistribution.co.uk/cml...tId=0000006811  Lipo it would depend on where you are going to be racing, if you need to be using a battery that is on the BRCA battery list. Don't forget a lipo bag for charging. MiCk B. :-)

+1 for Turnigy Nano Tech. The Zippy lipos from Hobbyking are also excellent - £20 for a 6000mAh 50c.
Just make sure whatever you order are hard-cased
