Fly boy, I am not an expert at large electrics, so someone with more experience can help you decide which exact battery would be best. There are a few companys that make lipolys in that size range, Tanic, Duralite, ThunderPower, to name a few. (those are just the ones I know of, there's probably more) I do know that Duralite and most of the MFG's make some very high discharge packs, which i think should do well. www.TanicPacks.com, www.DuraliteBatteries.com, http://www.thunderpower-batteries.com/ I know that Levi Jordan (previous owner of 3DFoamy) was in the process of making a 37% Extra 300L out of Depron/Blucore foam, which looked to be coming out very well, but when Levi sold the company, progress on it stopped. (I do think that Levi and John have the files and the prototype parts, so they may have been working on it, but I really don't know) The thread for building it is on RCU. Good luck with the projects, they sound very cool! ![]() Brandon |
