1.2 LiPo BATTERIES
Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries are becoming popular for use in R/C models due to their compact size, high energy density, and
high-current output. However, these types of batteries require special care and handling procedures for long life and safe operation.
Warning ! Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries are intended only for advanced users that are educated on the risks associated
with LiPo battery use. THUNDER TIGER/ACE RC does not recommend that anyone under the age of 16 use or handle
LiPo battery packs without the supervision of a knowledgeable and responsible adult.
Important ! Do not use NiCd/NiMH battery chargers for LiPO batteries. If you do not use a special charger for LiPO
batteries, they will be damaged.
TIGER/ACE RC
The ACE RC BLC electronic speed control is able to use LiPo batteries with nominal voltage not to exceed 7.4 volts (2S packs
recommended). Exceeding these voltages may result in damage to your brushless system. LiPo batteries have a minimum safe
discharge voltage threshold that should either not be exceeded. The ACE RC BLC electronic speed control is equipped with built-in
Low-voltage detection that cuts the power automatically when batteries have reached their minimum voltage (discharge) threshold.
Refer to the low power auto-cut table in the ESC instruction manual. It is the driver's responsibility to stop immediately to prevent
the battery pack from being discharged below its safe minimum threshold. It is critical for you, the user, to follow all other instructions
supplied by the battery manufacturer and the charger manufacturer for proper charging, use, and storage of LiPo batteries. Make
sure you understand how to use your LiPo batteries. Be aware that THUNDER TIGER/ACE RC shall not be liable for any special,
indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising out of the installation and/or use of LiPo
batteries in THUNDER TIGER models.
