Lipos in b44

[Ashley]

Hi,

I've just bought Some 4800 trakpower saddles

How are people plopping them in there b44?

Any suggestions welcome!

You need to use a LIPO tray to replace the battery trays in the car

Rudebits do a nice brass one to keep the weight low.

Associated do a carbon fibre version

[Ashley]

Cheers what's the part no. For the AE carbon ones?

9785

Ive got the associated carbon tray , retails for around 18.99

Its a nice piece of carbon , however on reflection the brass ones probably a better bet as you could do with the weight to balance the b44 when jumping/ landing.

Mines is nose diving at the moment , perhaps down to the mid44 chassis.

[Big G]

mid44 with lipo?

[MHeadling]

I have the Rudebits lipo tray, I'd go for that for the extra £6, you will need the weight with lipo batterys. Most of the AE team use the Rudebits tray so it
must work!!

[Ashley]

Cheers will order soon

Does anyone have pics of there 4800 in there b44's?

[c0sie]

Are you still running your throttle EPA at 75%?
And you do realise that 4800's in a B44 is gonna make that thing of your bloody fast dont ya?

[Ashley]

Well I got a 5.5 now and ran that a kiddy on 100%

Will be turning EPA down

I know 4800's will be fast

[c0sie]

Better get some spares as well young Grasshopper :D

[Ashley]

Haha got plenty of wishbones

[Ashley]

looked at the diggity desgin trays and stand offs are they good?

[c0sie]

I cant remember if you can fit the 4800 in with the standard battery standoffs or not.

The tray is ok, same as the AE one really, but the standoffs are taller.

TBH, you might as well get the Rudebits tray and then use spacers to raise the AE standoffs.

Alot of guys are using the Rudebits tray cos its ace :)

[Big G]

The AE tray works perfectly with my Reedy 35c 4200 lipos. don't need any washers to raise the posts or anything.

[Ashley]

cheers all ill have the rude bits ones get paid friday so will order hopefully will e-mail rude tony!

[ex-sco77morgan]

You 100% need longer battery posts

I'm sure I have some somewhere I'll dig them out and take a pic


Use the original blue Alu posts but need a longer screw going into it with washer at top to stop it pulling through battery strap :thumbsup:

[Ashley]

cheers scott are you still using them?

if not you want sell them?

[c0sie]

The TP4800's are 30mm shorter than the Reedy's and 31g lighter as well :)

[Ashley]

leave the tech stuff to you cris:thumbsup:

(it was good to see you on sat)

[c0sie]

Word up hommy!

If you get the TP48's, the brass tray and the brass straps youll be near enough the same weight in the rear as Pidge and Cragg.

Thats gotta be a good starting point lol

[Ashley]

:thumbsup:

pm me when your next up got to be a worm crew week

[Ashley]

will be ordering a rude bits tray on te 10th of sept

[Big G]

not to thread hijack too much but can a b44 be raced as caldicott?

[GRIFF55]

The caldicot guys love their offroad buggies mate:thumbsup:, good fun club there too, very helpful bunch

How close to the weight limit is the b44 running rudebits tray and straps?

[blue_pinky]
