Stock tube lipo help

[GingerBreadMan]

Hi all, im thinking of getting a ctr/moe stock for my cm18. I am also switching to lipos so want one that is able to fin in the buffer tube. I usually have the stock near full extended so it doesnt matter if it wont retract all the way in. Also must be deans. I was wondering if this would fit? http://www.vapextech.co.uk/batteries/airsoft-batteries/li-po-packs/airsoft-7-4v-1300mah-30c-lipo-battery-vapextech-lp301/

Also would 20c too low? i know higher c rating doesnt mean better but just some advice

 

Thanks

Amps = size in Amps * C Rating

 

1300mah = 1.3A

 

So 1.3 * 20 = 26A

 

A Combat machine isn't likely to be coming with a particular torque or powerful motor so I doubt it'll make much difference to have a small battery in there. This is just the trade off of using the buffer tube or a small battery stock.

Coming from a radio control racing background, the more C rating the better

 

People have a misconception that Volts is what gives power when in fact it is the Amps

 

You should be able to fit a 2000mah or 2amp Lipo into the buffer tube (or crane stock)

 

The last CQB game I played, I used a small 1300mah Lipo that lasted me all day, both cells were tested at (on game day) at 4.18v each, when I got home & tested again, this had gone down to 3.97v each cell so not much was used

 

Most airsoft motors if not spammed will not draw many amps

Thanks, i actually just bought two of these as the component shop ones were out of stock, and i needed to order soon. http://www.hobbyking.co.uk/hobbyking/store/__67731__Turnigy_nano_tech_1200mAh_2S_25_50C_Lipo_AIRSOFT_Pack_T_Connector_.html so hopefully they will fit, i just wanted to know what batteries anyone else had stuck in the buffer tube of a combat machine

There fine mate

 

With lipos, I always go with a minimum of 25C discharge rate

[GingerBreadMan]

Yeah, i saw somewhere that said use 25c as a minimum.

Something else, can anyone find a link on here where somebody used a dummy garmin gps on their stock to hold their battery. I have tried using the search function but cant find anything.
