    Turnigy 7 in 1 Mega Meter [ Wattmetre ] and megga checker

    well an ADF is a pretty basic devide, im surprised no one does it for RC so far (that i know of), those simply point to where a signal is beeping from the strongest, if it could talk back with a compass heading and an attitude indicator i think you'd be set good old instrument flying in RC then...

    Liquid Tape or Plastic Dip instead of Heat Shrink?

    dude how much did that cost you? should of just used some 3m undercoating cans, i buy mine for $5 each for the swamp cooler, i think u went overboard using those little jars for a whole hub but atleast it should really get especially if its partly eating away some palstics

    BMS-Free, info for the curious on bypassing the BM-mess

    i dont understand the question of single strand wires, i think no? there are 8 wires inside the fat net cable, all insulated and of very good copper quality (pretty stiff so you know its good, but regular stranded not 1 single solid copper), they are highly rated for data, don't loose their tiny...

    BMS-Free, info for the curious on bypassing the BM-mess

    i am now using ethernet rj-45 connectors instead of the balance plugs, easy to find, way cheaper setup since theyre so commercial and especially for longer lengths and easier install with crimps :D so right now net cables are (-) and balancers are (+), 1-8s and 9-16s ... plan on adding net...

    BMS-Free, info for the curious on bypassing the BM-mess

    checking back in again, it appears that this super cheap smart universal ebay charger (18650, aa, aaa, 9v etc) can recognize and fill up lifepo4 just fine, its not super fast but for this price you can just buy 16, and use thru balance connectors, i simply hookup each cell +/- terminal without...
