  • New Battery for Align Super Starter

    Now, before this becomes a starter bashing / dyno vs align thread, I will make it clear that my starter starts OS105s no problem, so I've no need or desire to change. OK..

    However, the battery is a cheap LoongMax 20C 3S Lipo that is a good 4 years old and quite puffed, so I want something new. What are peoples preferred 3S lipo for this starter these days?

    Cheers!
    Harry

      I used a Turnigy 3s 2200mAh in my Align starter, worked a treat

              I use a far eastern cheap 2300 3s 50C that does not fit so I use a couple of elastic bands to fix it to the outside and it starts my 50cc plank fairly easily !

                I mainly use a Turnigy nanotech 25-50C 2200 and it does fit. In fact I think it's the only pack I have that fits, all the others just hang off the side but that doesn't bother me.

                    It has started yours and Stuart's first time, every time ha. Don't get me wrong, I know after the second or third use of the day it will struggle hence why I want a new, better battery.
