Hi all, I am a camera operator and need some help with a project to film pandas in the wild. I bought a used King motor RC camera car from B and H and rigged it with a remote camera head, so all good there, rc car is working fine. I know zip about RC except what i have learned using drones.
two issues:
is there a way to beef up the battery life? It came rigged with two 5500 amp 40C 14.8v 81.4wh King motor batts and they work OK but I may need to sit idle for a couple of hours or more then back the car out of the wildlife preserve. also, will need to be able to fly overseas with these batts o they cant be too heavy duty (the airlines hate LIPO as it is) so will need to hand carry them. I have encased the car in sheet metal so the pandas cant get to the LIPOS and eat them which would def be a career ender.
also, the car wants to roll back or forward when in idle on an incline so its going to be a problem if i want to park it on a hill and hold the position. is there a way to trim the controls to deal with this?
thanks all in advance
