Clayton01 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Hi Guys use to race 1/5 petrol years ago but gave it up due to circumstances but now my son has just got into rc so bought him a cheap Bezgar truggy to see how he goes and obviously that got me all excited again and I bought a ftx vantage. Electric is a bit new to me so learning but just bought a new battery for my vantage 6200 50c 2s and need a new charger as the stock will be a bit slow can anyone recommend one ? Thanks.

Welcome to the forum. have you checked the 6200 lipo will fit. Has it a hard case for ‘bashing’? You have a max 27mm thickness available without modding the chassis to accommodate the battery. If it fits, please can you send me a link, as I’ve not found anything over 5400 that goes in. I have this charger (link below), I have 2 of them actually and i can’t fault them. If you plan to charge a few batteries at a time it may be worth looking at larger models: https://www.modelsport.co.uk/index.php?product_id=425241 Edited April 11, 2021 by Ant.p 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost sounds too good to be true. Next 2s lipo I get will quite likely be one of those 👍🏻 Edited April 11, 2021 by Ant.p 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
