Hey guys , anyone thing this would be worth inversting in , id like to put it in my Savage Flux to keep an eye on 6S ( yes i will make an adaptor to link the 2 x 3S packs to go into this )

It looks pretty cool man, but i'd say it's not nessasary as long as u set your esc to the correct voltage cutoff u'll be fine! mabey look at individual cell monitor for your lipos? It's designed 4 helis dude so you don't fall out the sky

it looks kind of overkill, i guess it depends how close you think your going to be to killing cells

On the Savage Flux set your LVC at 3.5v a cell, on 3.2v a cell it still lets the pack get far too low under load.

LVC was set at 3.2v / cell and didn't kick in on this run.

I think for a plane or heli it's ideal, takes the guess work out of the flight time.. but in a land based rc , only really see a use in a rc boat personally.. but for the sheer bling and wank factor it'd be one cool gadget .

But then again, it'd be very handy when racing 1/8ths at least id know how the battery is doing late in the race.
