Last time I checked, that's not good.... I'll be sure to keep to the lower end of the voltage ranges!

Thanks again!

you can run a 2 cell lipo pack, if you want it, just you have to regulate it down to 5-6v

when you start using motors and propper escs, thats when the 2 and 3 cell comes it :)

There are certian servos you can run on 2 cell lipos but for the trouble and weight its worth just buying motors and a speed controller.

And welcome to the forum :)

Yeah, I was reckoning motors & ESCs would be the next step once I've learnt a bit with the servos (or once they've all blown/stripped their gears :lol: ) just gotta wait on the postman now!

Thanks for the welcome, razordave!

Why does everyone spell it like that? its Razerdave with an E, like the robot!

Oh I see you're from Edinburgh, did you come and see Robots Live at East fortune a month ago ?

Its because razor is spelt like that. Razer the robot is spelt wrong. Dunno if they spelt it like that for a reason or if they just spelt it wrong on the original application. Ask Ian. Lol.

There's a gaming peripherals manufacturer called Razer as well (their mice are awesome, by the way). I'm guessing it's just a style thing, as spelling words rong iz totali kewl 2 da MAXXX.

My apologies for getting it wrong :oops: I just wanted to fit in with everyone! :lol:

I didn't see the event, unfortunately, I will have to keep my eyes peeled for future events up these parts.

Got some of the bits through.... LiPos, Molex connectors and haz's charger.... the war on wire management begins! :evil:
