So I'm planning on getting the kwa rm4. But it requires a 11.1v lipo I don't know anything about them. They say I need a balance charger for the 3 cells. The lipo charger I currently have does not do that. Any tips? Recommendations? Any help would be great

Here's the charger you'd want, nice and simple. Here's a selection of 11.1's; Hobby King will probably be your best price, and this is sorted by what ships from the US to get it faster. Not sure what C discharge you'd need... And if you don't have one, I'd recommend a charge bag.

@ Darth, you could probally call someone at Phills hobby shop to help you out man. Alot of their RC cars are gonna use those bigger batteries. They should have someone on staff that knows what the hell they are doing.

Hopefully it doesn't function like the Celsius CTW that I had. It had to run on a 11.1 Lipo which was a kind of a pain because if it got down to around 9.6 volts it would shut down.

I think the extra v is for the recoil. It has a higher torque motor. So I'm sure it's a drainer. Should I look into a low v alarm?

Just don't leave it accidentally attached because it will eventually drain (and subsequently kill) the battery. Speaking from experience. I have the 2 cell version of this, and it works great. Has a little speaker that alerts once it starts to get low: eliteairsoftbatteries.com/products/150-airsoft-lvc-for-3s-111v-lipo-packs.aspx
