LRP LiPo Battery Parallel balancer

LRP have released their new LiPo battery parallel balancer, seen last week at the European Championships in Austria. Especially developed for the use of LiPo and LiFe batteries and automatically recognises the cell condition of all 2-5 cell batteries. If the condition of the cells is not equal, an automatic equalizing of the cells starts and balances the cells during charging to ensure all cells are 100% equal. The micro-controller-regulation guarantees a particularly high precision. The balancer is not as positioned between the charger and the battery as usual, but is connected in parallel and therefore there is no influence on the charger and its functions.

LRP BEC, Engine Monoblock & Starter box

Three releases that we skipped over earlier in the week from LRP are a new heavy duty BEC, one-piece aluminium engine mount and new competition starter box. The BEC is a new extremely strong voltage regulator for use with LiPo receiver batteries in nitro models and works perfectly with heavy cars and powerful servos, such as those found in 1/5th – 1/8th scale models. The new one-piece blue anodized aluminium motor mount for the S8-BX and S8-TX stiffens up the chassis around the engine and of course enables a quick engine removal and remounting. Finally, similar to the one released by Nosram on Friday, LRP have also released their new Spec.2 compact and lightweight starter box that has a new higher positioned starter wheel for more precise car positioning and faster starts.

LRP C3-STX Pro 2.4GHz F.H.S.S. Radio set

LRP have announced the C3-STX Pro 2.4GHz F.H.S.S radio set that, with all its high-tech features and specially selected electronic components, LRP claim it to be one of the best transmitters currently available on the market. Using the latest F.H.S.S. technology, it transmits radio signals using a certain frequency just for the blink of an eye so even if the carrier frequency is getting disrupted the interference is just affecting a fraction of the entire signal. A large LCD display enables you to view all the different setting parameters such as end point adjustment, trims, ABS, exponential as well as the ability to save and load up to 10 configurations.

LRP BEC Stabilizing capacitor

LRP have released a new BEC stabilizing capacitor that prevents the voltage of your receiver from dropping under correct working level. This smart item stabilizes the voltage for your receiver and is especially important when running in classes that use a low level of voltage input, such as 4-cell 1/12th class. Works for any receiver on the market, no matter if its FM or 2.4GHz receivers, and can be used in either electric or nitro models, just plug into any open slot on your receiver and you are ready to go.
