Convert lipo stick to saddle?
Can you convert a lipo stick pack to a saddle pack like you can with the old nicad battery's or do you have to buy a saddle pack?
Thinking of going from 2wd to 4wd but my stick packs won't fit into any 4wd models so it could be expensive |

Probably, but you wouldn't be allowed to race with it.
And the parts you would need would probably cost as much as buying some new ones anyway. HobbyKing nanotechs aren't too expensive, neither are gens ace. |

Oh, and the first time you realise you've got it wrong is when your car explodes. Our the battery blows a hole in your worktop.

Nope.
You can buy the correct packs you need from Hobbyking for a bout £20 though.

yup 2nd that, I just bought some packs of nanotech saddle 4850 50/100c lipos this morning, think they were £21.25
comes with leads etc, while they may not be the top of the range packs I just cant justify the extra, and from readin gup on the turnigy stuff, it seems like good value for money the £100 pack might make it a bit faster, but all that means is I will crash harder LOL

would using a pack not on the list invalidate insurance at a club event?

Sure, Take a handsaw and cut it in half *don't do it!*

If you do attempt it please video it to use as a warning to others not to do it.
A lipo pack has full length flat cells in the case, attempting to cut them down or fold them in half can very quickly lead to a lipo fire.

the only hardcase stick I've cracked open had two stacks of three in it. Essentially the insides of a pair of saddles in one case.
