Make sure your charger port size matches and dont go over 4 amps for the 5.5x2.1mm dc ports.

I was wondering what you guys think about this kit: by Torqueboards. I was wondering how it stacks up by price vs normal diy.

Itā€™s good and TB is a well known vendor. However you could get pieces and bits from here & there which might bring down the price.

I need to epoxy some inserts to the holes in my Holypro trampa deck and want some guidance.

Iā€™m thinking J-B Weld 50112, is it good stuff? Seems like a nice clean and easy way to apply epoxy. Should I also lightly sand the inner edges of the deck holes and the outer surface of the plastic inserts? The deck holes already have a lightly roughed surface from the machining process so I might not need to but Iā€™m considering sanding the abs inserts.

Also Iā€™m predicting I wonā€™t do a great job and will have some overflow. Planning on just wiping the excess off and then sanding whatever hardens. Seem like a plan?

I have everything for my build and forgot the main part that will give the thing lifeā€¦ a charger xD

Whats the best 12s 4a chargers for my 12s4p 30q battery pack

i live in Australia so the correct wall plug would be lovely

You need a charger with a fan to keep it cool, check a model which is not too noisy and if you got space at home, aluminum case (runs cooler).

Suspension Trucks, like the Baja Boards. Like where can I buy something like that ? I check AliExpress but is nothing like that. Didnā€™t know if I should start a thread on how itā€™s made so thatā€™s why I asked here before taking room

Working on finishing up my battery pack and I wanna hook it to a charger to charge a little then put it back to storage level. Itā€™s a 12s4p Samsung 30q pack, with a bestech d140 bms, I have it wired in and an xt60 coming off of the leads. Havenā€™t fully settled on the charger/charge port yet, but being in the rc hobby I have a couple chargers already and wanted to see if I could use one to test my battery before buying more lol I know my isdt q6 wonā€™t charge it, but I have a turnigy accucel 6 that I think might be able do the job. note Iā€™ve only used lipos in the past Being I donā€™t have a balance lead coming off I wanted to know if I hook it to the NiMH/NiCd setting could I charge my pack? It shows it does up to 15s so should be good there, just not sure about the settings.
