Hi Guys,

i ordered a new battery for my 450v2 on hobbyking (turnigy 3S 3000mah, 20C ).

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=9265

My bad, when it arrived I found out I had overlooked its dimensions  . It wont fit in the battery compartment !! the length is too much!!. I'm planning to some how fit it underside the heli (between the landing skids). Is it safe ? has anyone tried it ? Do i have any other option ?

Thanks and Regards,

3000mah lipo pack is too heavy for a 450 size heli. I dont think it will work even if you manage to attach it to the heli.

The ideal size for 450 is 2200mah which is around 215 gms.

That's around ~80gm extra btw 2200 and 3000 mah , does it matter?

That 80 gms would make it nose heavy.
AFAIK, on a V2, we can mount it on the slanting battery mount using a strap - Try it out

It will work alright. I have used it by attaching it directly between the skids with C.G. a little ahead of the main shaft - shift it forward and back to get the cg spot on & go fly

Regards

@raja_mastana , battery is too long , i can't fit it into the battery mount. Even if i do i can't instal the canopy.

@bill : I'm planning to do the same
