I have had outstanding results with the Hyperion G3 850 MAH. Hold their voltage very well. And you can charge them right up in 10 minutes.

I like the Hyperion batteries as well. Very nice to be able to charge them so fast.

I'm using Outrage xp 800mAh packs. I've got around 125 cycles on em and they are still holding up alright. They are starting to puff a little. I was going to try the hyperions.

How do you all like the flight characteristics of the 250? Does it compare to the 450? Looks like fun..

The 450 is definitely more stable but the 250 is still a blast to beat around on.

I dont know if I would agree with that. My T250 is just as stable as my Beam E4 is on a calm day. The 250 really is a sweet, fun machine.

Stability wise, putting in a set of Trueblood Green dampners made all the difference.

Dude, look at your tail!!!!

Zaaaguy72,

Lol I would agree that the 250 is very stable on a calm day. I posted that after flying in 15mph winds lol. Still for being that small it is very stable.

Colsy,

Let me know how the batteries are.

15mph winds would be a little nerve-racking with the 250!

[/quote]I have been using the Thunder Power 910 mah Pro Lite V2 packs for the pod and boom stock config, which balances spot on. Normally I set my timer to 6 minutes (normal and idle up 1)and I put around 600mah back in but with the scale H500 set up, I ran the timer at 4 minutes and I'm still putting back 600mah. So, when I add the "Y" connector to utilize the second ballast battery, I should get 8 to 10 minutes of normal flying. BTW, these twin packs also balance the H500 very skids level...spot on.

I know, I quoted myself from an earlier post. That was prior to back tracking topics...

The beatings will continue until morale improves...

Tipped the scales at exactly 100grammes including wires and connectors.
