Re: HK500 on 3s 4000mha battery
Sitting still the gyro blinks with no other function going on with six cells plugged in and turned on with all switches in the right place . With three cells it is solid and steady. I actually think for sport flyers six cells is too much voltage for a 500 series. Now on the other hand six cells seems too little on a 600.

I am using these from hobby king in my Trex 500s and 600 E Pro (the 600 uses 2 in series) - I have 9 of them, they are cheap (27 dollars ea), and work great. On the 600 they can deliver 50 volts on a full charge at 60 amps peak stead state - that is 3000 watts. I have an emergency generator at home and can keep the fridge, freezer, well pump, furnace and most of the lights on at home at 4500 watts PRODUCT ID: T3000.6S.20 Turnigy 3000mAh 6S 20C Lipo Pack (Great for T-Rex 500) The new number one in performance and price! The new Turnigy Lipoly packs deliver full capacity at the said C rate. You wont find a better deal in Lithium Polymer batteries anywhere! Spec. Minimum Capacity: 3000mAh Configuration: 6S1P / 22.2v / 6Cell Constant Discharge: 20C Peak Discharge (10sec): 30C Pack Weight: 487g Pack Size: 137 x 42 x 36mm Charge Plug: JST-XH Discharge Plug: 4mm Bullet-connector Great for T-Rex 500 and HK-T500!

Re: HK500 on 3s 4000mha battery
Internal bec on both the Hk and Hobby Wing. I am not sure but I would think the bec is suppying too much voltage on all three. I'm going to stick with three cell for now it would also work well with scale due to required reduced head speed for scale flying.

Re: HK500 on 3s 4000mha battery
Just a footnote. Today when I was flying my three cell 500 one observer said "boy that thing is fast" and it is now that I have it dialed in. I also used only 1910mha of my 4000mha pack after seven minutes of flight. The only thing that gets warm not hot is the battery pack. I will need to get someone to take a video of it now that I have it dialed in.
