    46mm pin rods ?

    Yeh, just read they were junk. Ohwell. I tried the ziptie method, crashed at a slow speed, ziptie snapped, pins fell out.. :( I'll have to fix a metal plate over them some how, a ziptie just won't hold up to a crash (Which i do alot of, being a beginner)

    Okay, well charging the batteries for my rotostart isn't a problem, a 2000mah pack lasts me fine. I am only putting between 4 and 8 tanks of fuel through the savvy each day and the rotostart is fine with this, so i can just charge it over night. Well i temporarily fixed my fuel tank so i can...

    I received the battery pack ! it says standard charg @ 150ma will take 15hours. But i have a charger which will charge up to 2amps. What do you think i could charge it at without damaging it ??

    I'm sure i will figure something out. Its shocking how long normal branded batteries last. Energizers best lasted a mear 1.5 tanks before the brake and steering became too slow.

    Failsafe help
