Mud Duck Sport Build

[Gofer303]

I am in the process of building a Mud Duck Sport and have decided to go electric with it. I have a brand new Motrolfly 120 amp esc with a ubec in line and a DM2825 950 kv motor. The question still remaining is about battery's.
I have talked to Greg from Mud duck aviation and he is recommending a 18v 5000mah battery is there a reliable non bank breaking battery such as this? I will need to get a charger the only one I have that will do lipos is a stock 3s park zone charger I did get a accucycle elite but dont know if it would charge above 3s? Basically waht I need is some opinons and experiences from you guys that have the time in the ring. I have only been flying a tad over a year now so I am a newbie! Thanks in advance for any info.

Hi Larry here are a few 5 cell lipos for your concideration.

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...idProduct=8585
5 cell 5000mah 18.5 volts 25C = 125 AMP lipo $48.88

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...idProduct=8589
5 cell 5000mah 18.5 volts 30C = 150 AMP Rated LIPO $54.85

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...dProduct=14844
5 cell 5000 mah 18.5 volts 25C = 125 AMP lipo $49.99

and here is a nice charger that everyone likes. hurry, these sell out fast. buy 2 at this price and charge both lipos at the same time, $22.99 it will charge up to a 6 cell lipo. if you stay on the HK battery charger page for a few mins, the price may come down a little. use PayPal when shopping over seas.
