Re: Help with micro t..
I have the micro T, stock, and with the Losi Lipo (and wall charger) ..
Man .. that thing is fast with lipo! And still handle pretty well! Problem is .. I broke the steering arm right the way .. (then I just made a DIY one for it .. ) I had problem with that wall charger too, as the plug is so small, I think I toasted it, just use a regular lipo charger to charge up the battery now. (set to 0.2A) To be honest, $40 for that lipo and charger is quite expensive, consider it is only 180mah .. however, I couldn't find any other brand of lipo for that size .. |

Re: Help with micro t..
Here you go.
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...%5F15C%5F.html You'll need to change the connectors on either the battery or the esc though. Personally, I'd suggest switching over to micro deans.

Re: Help with micro t..
Buy a decent charger.... branded lipos have always been over priced. Get away from walwart chargers, even a low end computer charger is better than a walwart charger.
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...ENUINE%5F.html You will need a power supply though, a laptop one will work. You can usually find those cheap.

Re: Help with micro t..
No not really, I do shop there for certain lower end equipment and lipos but I find that when I recommend the stuff I use myself to newbies they tend to choke a little.
While I do use HK lipos I tend to buy the higher end chargers ($100+) which isn't very newbie friendly so I tend to cater my recommendations to the budgets, and experience level, of those asking the questions.
