Re: Fan-fair 2014

Just want to know if you guys have noted a vast difference with new generation of Lipo batteries of late?

I recently bought 3 Thunderpower 70C 3S -1800 batteries for the Phase 3 F-16
Holly cow they rock with power - I get almost 4 full minutes of full throttle fun and the batteries barly get warm - My older batteries feel like old slow dogs now when I fly on them

I also going to upgrade my 2nd Phase 3 F-16 to a Velocity 70mm unit and will run it on new
TEAM GREAT Hobbies 50C 4S - 1800 batteries - I figure it will fly on both the TP 3S and the TGH 4S just fine - Nice thing with the TGH batteries was they came with Deans ends installed.

Re: Fan-fair 2014

Same in Toronto, Ken, the field takes quite awhile to dry up so you can walk on it without leaving tracks. Works fine though, still want to get a couple more jets done first. For me, I can go up the street to a public school, they have a huge playground area at the back, I can fly my foam Arrows there easily.

Their web site states they only send by courier. Have you had deliveries from them? Were their brokerage fees on delivery, and how much?
Thanks
