    How do you charge the Tattu battery? Can you use the charger that came with the truck or do you need to buy a separate charger for that battery?

    • @BriansRCStuff
      @BriansRCStuff  Před rokem

      No, you cannot use the included charger and need a charger capable of charging 3s. The original charger charges off of the balance leads and is set up to only charge 2s.
      You also have to solder a new connector on the LIPO (Deans) unless you are running a XT30 (probably not).
      I tested this charger several months ago. It worked well for me and is on sale for $20 right now (after coupon) which is a steal. The company is releasing a new one so they’re selling this one off for cheap. There are seven left the last time I looked. Darn, the price went back up today but it may drop again.

    is it the same as the 16889a pro but just with a different body and slightly smaller motor?

    • @BriansRCStuff
      @BriansRCStuff  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Do you know what size motor is in the 16890A? If my memory is correct, they are very similar but I think the 16899A pro is 3800kv and the 16890a is 3500 kv. For some reason I thought the 16890A had a 35a ESC vs a 25a ESC for the 16899a pro but I could be wrong.
      I remember seeing a list of the differences but I cannot seem to find it.

    • @BriansRCStuff
      @BriansRCStuff  Před 25 dny

      Interesting..... I honestly don't know how big of a performance reduction there would be. The LIPOs that came with mine were pretty low end. You don't have a way to measure the speed do you? I am curious how fast yours is.
      If you care about the performance, you may want to pick up some higher end 2s LIPOs or possibly even try a 3s (it worked pretty well for me but some folks have had issues trying to run their 16890A on 3s with the ESC shutting down violently.

      @@BriansRCStuff the way motor is mounted and the chassis centre connector makes it hard to use generic heatsinks with fans. The one i ordered had to be cut and then zip tied to the motor because after cutting they no longer embrace the motor like a spring. Also, esc has no connection for the fun so i ordered a 16000rpm fan that work on 8,4v and connect ir directly to the lipo with a aftermarket connector cable. my hbx 16889a pro esc doesnt hold 3s, it keeps cutting out. i put the fan on the brushed version because on hot summers even on 2s it becomes too hot and sometimes cuts out

    I have something to ask being new to hobby grade RC's
    In the Instruction manual for the 16890A it says ( before useing the car and before storing the battery to fully charge the battery ) and it also says ( only use the USB charger that came with the car to charge the batteries ) but all the guys in the comments on You Tube are telling me not to fully charge the batteries to store them and that i need a Balance charger talked Directly to Haiboxing and they told me And I quote
    ( fully charge the batteries to store them and to only use the USB charger that came with the car ! So who's right Haiboxing the Company who builds and sells the car or the guys in the comnent's on You Tube ??

    • @BriansRCStuff
      @BriansRCStuff  Před 16 dny

      I am SHOCKED HBX would say only use a USB charger and to store fully charged.
      LIPOs do not like to be left fully charged or discharged and should be stored around 3.8 to 3.85v per cell (about half charged). Your USB charger is fine for charging a 2s LIPO but getting down to storage voltage can be tricky without a hobby grade charger. What you could do for now is run it down to about 3.8v per cell or run it down a bit lower and then charge it back up to around 3.8v using a LIPO voltage checker to get it close to storage charge. Even if you get it to say 3.75 or 3.9v per cell, the LIPO will be way happier than fully charged. Leaving a LIPO fully charged will degrade the performance/capacity over time and if it was to catch fire, would have a lot more energy in it and would be a much bigger problem than one kept at storage voltage.
      If you want a good hobby grade charger at a great price, check out this dual channel unit (I have tested it). For under $80 on sale it is a great deal. Another great option at a low price is this more basic one channel charger for around $40 (I have also tested this one). a.co/d/0286S1e9
      HBX is wrong is that is what they said.

    • @BriansRCStuff
      @BriansRCStuff  Před 16 dny

      I think most of the HBX manuals state something like "Do not leave the battery pack uncharged or fully charged for long periods of time."
      This is a dumbed down version of keeping it at storage voltage.

Haiboxing sent me 4 batteries for the car and going by what they said I fully charged them to store them and now I don't know how to discharge them the the right voltage to store them and if I just run them in the truck I have know way to know what the voltage is on them !!

      @@timmy4539 Well... that is how you charge a NiMH battery but not a LIPO or LiIon. Sadly that person was misinformed. : (
      I am happy to try to help you to pick a good budget charger if you send me a link(s). If you want to email me in email address is in the about section of my channel or we can try to do it here (sometimes CZcams deletes internet addresses from comments when you try to post them). The chargers I sent you links to will charge/discharge/storage voltage charge but there are many other good options out there.
      You are not going to ruin a LIPO overnight but leaving them fully charged but over a period of months the performance will degrade. I am really anal about keeping mine at storage voltage as I want them to perform at their best and I test LIPOs for many manufactures. When I do speedruns, I don't to wonder if I am getting the full performance out of a LIPO.... so within a few hours of running a LIPO, I put them to storage voltage.
      You would run your truck about half of its run time (say like 5 or 10 minutes) to at least get the LIPOs closer to storage voltage. You can get voltage checkers like these www.amazon.com/SIPYTOPF-Battery-Voltage-Warning-Indicator/dp/B0B8XDLVMS/ref=sr_1_9?crid=1IVFSA9S6IPGX&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.QcWJqPcdQnL9CI2wFHHdMpPGDunLsxCyelvBgssx4J9XTKeLmydca4r6uVSChzNQBjp-Fmnkw4VTyTxuEpewRDrea1S-6nyqeYC3wrrVz27KB0h4gyZMN1Hgu_Udr4948l3OKyut_p7Ybfe-06akQpGvBu4vDSBh5CmTY_q1NLYabsy0ItXwW8I1CWPlK-rurC3wYcdxIfACxvUiuoMQR0Vbp4vx5r-L_N1FLL7L__I.ixXQXQ21JazuFknoGXdT16yk9FsnrrpFYrg-gz8jQKo&dib_tag=se&keywords=lipo+voltage+checker&qid=1719200213&s=toys-and-games&sprefix=lipo+voltager+checker%2Ctoys-and-games%2C73&sr=1-9
      They are cheap and are really nice to have when running a RC car or truck. Or, when you get a higher end charger, you are good to go.
