Awesome thank you
Thank you!
I definitely feel sketchy about 8.4 going into my transmitter. If anything I’d use LiFe (LFP) because that has a resting voltage below 7v. They may get high during charging but quickly drop off after being disconnected and can safely be discharged to 2.5v/cell, so the LVA in the dx5c being set to 5.6v would actually be acceptable.
You should not use a battery above 8c discharge rate on your radios. You can purchase many lipos that have the correct connector. Using these will not void warrenty.
can you also use a liion battery on the receiver RX ?for spectrum RX receivers ?
Yea, as long as it's relatively the same voltage.
Hi , a question:
Spektrum DX6C ( of maybe DX5C ) is compatible with my possible future Mini-z MR04 EVO2?
I also do model flying, I have a lot of Spektrum Rx for my DX8, can I use them for the DX6C ? e.g. Vince
I just bought that 2000 li ion spectrum battery, my charger won’t charge it because it doesn’t have a balance wire. How do you charge it? Thanks
What charger do you have? Usually, chargers have balance options where you can select "no balance" or something similar.
@@mzgarage passport p4 ultra I think it is
Did you see if there is an option for no balance?
This is good info for newbie on the rc world, i did change to lipo to ALL my transmitters when i started rc hobbie 9yrs ago.
I got a question n hopefully you can help me out, i have a spektrum dx5c and i dont have reverse, it is possible that i can get the throttle assembly?? Thank you.
If you send it to Horizon, they should be able to fix it. I have had good experiences with sending in stuff, but this was years ago.
Isn't the voltage of the 2s to high?
I have been running it for a year with no issue. The Dx5 Pro runs on the same battery I am using I believe.
so you pull it out every time to charge it?
Yea, it's not hard. Just unplug it, charge it, and throw it back in.
@@mzgarage I'm looking for a way to not have to pull battery out to charge it. guess I'll have to make something custom.
"A sharp screwdriver"? what are we, cave men!? lol ;) I did upgrade to the LiPo battery from Spektrum, and am underwhelmed with it's performance. I have the DX5 Pro, with the annoying screw on battery lid, and NO charge jack built in. Also completely underwhelmed with that radio as well.
What are you underwhelmed about with the Spektrum lipo? Just the battery life?
I have the dx5 too with no charge port accidentally changed the low voltage settings when i first got it now it wont let me do anything before low voltage warning comes on bought a battery pack but can't find a charger anywhere already bought one from amazon that doesn't work what charger can i get for the pack with the two prong clip cant find one anywhere even looks like spektrum doesn't have one trying not to spend anymore money on this controller had it for months and haven't even been able to use it definitively getting frustrated with it 400$ controller and my crap stock traxxas ones work better had nothing but problems with itn
Upgrade to Lipo Battery by buying a FlySky Noble NB4😁
