Well, had to break an order into 4 parts because of their size restriction. They instantly sent the motors that I'd wind up deciding were too small and would have changed if I had the chance, they're here after 2+ weeks. The shipping was almost as much as the motors themselves. The 2nd set went out after the first had arrived, no sign of them yet and that tracking link simply tells me they can't track it. Less important to me when they do finallly arrive.

More than a month later, I notice the backorder number on the other two sets of motors, the important sets, has grown. . . .

well I guess HK shipping isn't too bad. I got my batteries today in the mail.
when I first checked the tracking and it went to the Swiss Post site I freaked out and thought I would have to wait 30-45 days.
turns out it showed up on time, I'm just a spaz I guess :D

First time I saw that swiss post tracking I freaked myself. Thinking they had been sent to switserland first or something? I got used to the idea that stuff from china wasn't going to track that good.
THE LIPO RULES. NEVER ABOVE 4.3V NEVER BELOW 2.7V DON'T PUNCTURE

Ideal charging /discharging range for Lipo, 3.65v minimum 4.1v maximum

See battery technology section, FAQ thread at the top of the page for lipo noob info.
