Ordered a 6.6v 3000ma LIFE pack as a Rx pack. Is anyone else using this method to power the Rx? Should be here tomorrow.

I also have a couple of different packs that I am going to try. The first is a 2s 1300 mah lipo and see how that goes.

I am using the Hyperion 2100mah 6.6v Life pack on my 700 and my scale 600.....no need to step down the voltage for the receiver or servos except for the tail as I am using the Futaba BLS251. It is a real small pack, fits neatly anywhere. It uses around 130 mah per 6 minute flight on FBL.

that does make sense about using a 2100 pack . i have 4 life packs at 1900. their as small as a 800 3cell . what is funny is i was setting up my servos with a 4.8v 4cell 2200 nickel metal hydride pack and it would shut down when i used all the servos on the swash . i changed the batteries to a 4 cell scr nicad 1000 pack and it never shut down . i could put the 2200 2 cell lipo in the front on the 6 cell lipo there is plenty of room up their .
thanks everyone for the ideas
