                      On the 8cell f4 can you use any combination of batteries to equall 8 example 6cell paired with 2cell. Thanks.

                            Be careful in the serial connector you use.
                            I believe that for the 6 +2 you need ...... this one!

                                I use this style for series and I make harnesses (wire length as needed) for parallel.
                                Parallel would generally be used when doing a twin and wanting to ensure the LVC's will trigger as close to the same time as possible.
                                I'll probably set up long parallel leads fr my 80 inch B-25 so I can have small packs in the nacelles and larger packs in the fuselage. (looks like I need nose weight and it might as well be batteries)
                                FF gliders and rubber power since 1966, CL 1970-1990, RC since 1975.

                                current planes from 1/2 oz to 22 lbs

                                        NEWS FROM TOM FROM MOTION, KEEP THOSE BANK ACCOUNTS READY:

                                        Stay tuned. We've been working very hard for a long time and many new planes are going to be released in the next 4-5 months. In addition to new planes, we have an additional color scheme for an existing plane we'll announce next week. After the new color scheme, the next new plane will be announced a week or so after that. Both of these are on the water already. We're in the process of capturing video and pictures. If everything lines up, we'll announce two more planes at Joe Nall in the Fall. If for some reason that does not line up, the announcement will hopefully be shortly after that. More coming after this but exact time frames are less clear. By the early part of next year, it will become clear how busy we have been behind the scenes
