lipo batteries

The summer is packed with events for radio control model enthusiasts across the country. Making the most of the school holidays, the longer summer days brings people outdoors to enjoy model rallies, events, and competitions. With a packed calendar extending through August and into September 2017. We have the model battery power to keep you sailing, driving, and flying your radio control model for many hours with friends.

Where will you be taking your 6v batteries for transmitters and receivers? We’ve picked out a few events around the UK to get you inspired or taking part in the world of radio control model planes, cars, and boats.

Take to the Skies with Model Aircraft Events

The Large Model Association (LMA) runs a series of model flying events throughout the year and September 2nd and 3rd sees the Much Marcle Model Show 2

Lipo batteries have been a revolution in power cell technology over the past ten years. The benefits to radio control model fans and Airsoft enthusiasts is a lightweight battery which provides excellent output and performance. When compared to Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) or Nickel Cadmium (NiCad) batteries, the Lithium Polymer (ion) batteries (Lipo) can be formed into almost any shape and dimension. Being lightweight makes them ideal for flying model planes and helicopters. By offering higher capacities they store more power. Being more powerful, they have a higher discharge, leading to a more responsive experience whether you are driving a radio control buggy or pulling the trigger on an Airsoft electric gun.

However, all is not plain sailing with these batteries, due to their higher discharge they generally have a shorter usage time. More critically, they contain a delicate chemistry. They can be easily damaged if they are not stored, used, or charged correctly. Failure to

For radio control model aircraft enthusiasts now is the time to make sure you have a full stock of LiPo batteries. Late spring and summer is the time of year to make the most of your favourite hobby and past time. The light nights and the promise of sunny weather are an exciting prospect to anyone who likes to see their model plane take to the skies. Whether it’s a cell of 6v batteries or something with more kick, we have the LiPo batteries to help you take off, fly, and land your plane or helicopter in complete control.

LiPO Batteries and Aircraft Power Packs

LiPo batteries are essential to the communication between you the pilot on the ground and your radio control model up in the air. They are the source of power to the transmitters and receivers so that you can control the throttle and direction of your aircraft from take off to landing. Famed for their incredible power output a

LiPo batteries are Lythium Polymer based and provide a battery with a strong power source for Airsoft and Radio Control Models.

The main benefits of LiPo batteries are that the cells are lightweight. They can be supplied in many different dimensions to suit a range of battery housing. Being lightweight the LiPo battery has proven popular with enthusiasts of radio controlled aircraft, cars, buggies, and boats. Owing to their considerable power to weight ratio, these battery packs are renowned for enabling a highly responsive control of your model.

When it comes to using your LiPo batteries we always recommend checking the instructions. These batteries are a fantastic power source

Lipo batteries are a popular choice within the world of radio controlled models and Airsoft sports. Why is this? Primarily because a Lipo battery is light weight. They can be manufactured into different shapes and dimensions. This means that Lipo batteries take up less space but offer a lot of power, relative to the battery size.

In the realm of radio controlled model vehicles, the power to weight ratio is important to keep performance levels high. In the world of Airsoft, the adaptability of the packs for Lipo batteries means that they are designed to fit into the crane stocks of the Airsoft Electric Guns.

Lipo batteries have proven their versatility,

If you want to obtain the ultimate performance from your electric powered models then nothing comes close to LiPo batteries. In the past, the highest powered batteries tended to be heavy and didn’t perform all that well as they simply added too much weight to the model. This greatly limited the endurance which limited what designers could achieve. But, the rise of the LiPo gas mean many models now have superior speeds, rate of climb and endurance than ever before, even when compared with their internal combustion powered equivalents.

Last Longer With LiPo Batteries!

LiPo batteries offer the very best power to weight ratio when compared with all other types. The very low self-discharge level of these batteries means they will retain around 80% of their charge for around 12 months and they are supplied ready to use i
