| I wanted to share where I get my LiPos for Shar and I thought some of you other guys might want to know. A lot are out of stock now which is one reason my other guns dont have them besides my Stubby. I use these on my expensive RC Jets as one being the F-35 below which actually is running a 60A Speed Controller and 11 servos that is way more taxing than an airsoft gun especially when it is going 100mph. Anyway heres the link. http://www.nitroplanes.com/20c.htmlAlso Shar I have a 14.8v LiPo brand new but needs a balance charger it does have the factory charge in it ( I tested it in my plane ) But I dont have a balance charger for that voltage and I will let that go for less than 10 bucks now I dont recommend throwing it in an AEG cause it will probably make it liquid metal but if you want to by all means its yours. Here is my beast jet. | |

| FYI.... I am building two predator style Gliding UAVs right now with micro cams should be done sometime in june or july. I want them to be expendable (basically out of foam board with salvageable electronics) so if your on the other side you can shoot it.
The reason its taking me so long to build the first two is because I want to have a loiter time of around an hour in the air and finding the right design of airframe with battery power with all the different planes out there is a pain.
I may just go with some cheap powered gliders I would use the jets but they are way too fast and way too loud. Also I designed a release mechanism using some older servos for releasing some kind of powder bomb or smoke bomb using a little rocket igniter I would put the mini estes rockets on it but I dont want to hurt anyone but it will look cool.
I do have a helicopter we may be able to use soon but it would be for short range recon as I can only get a 10 min flight time out of it. You would be able to shoot this as well it would be easy to take out of the air with a shot to the plastic rotors (trust me if you break the rotors its cheap to replace them) the rest of the helo is cnc so if you hurt it I would give you props. | |

I also got the micro cam that will work for 2 miles Wind with the gliders I want I have gotten 30 min flight times from a glider in the past with heavy wind. Now the helo could be awesome on waynes world field from the looks of it. I may have a few motors for that blimp that wont matter if the wind is blowing the problem with RC blimps though is i would have to weigh everything down to the gram to make sure I dont go over stock weight. But now that you have me thinking of blimps I could get some Mylar emergency blankets to make a bigger envelope for yours that way you could throw on some heavy counterweights to balance it out in the wind. | |

| Scrap the blimp idea for outside use. You will never find a day it is calm enough to fly it outdoors. Been their done that. Bob. | |

The ONLY problem I've found with these is that they are about an inch thick so you will not fit into the space most mini's barely fit. It is just too thick... That is a good note I forgot to add that they are only good if you have room. But if you have a full stock ak or m16 wired to the rear it will work. A small mAH 11.1v may fit in a the front handguard too I dont know as I have never tried it. | |
