I received a Heng Long Tiger 1 as a present. Its my first RC so I'm learning....
The model number on the box says 3818-1 and has a 7.0 sticker. The box and manual talk about a 7.4V lithium battery. But there's a sticker over the UPC code that says Ni-MH and the battery in the box was a Ni-MH.
If I change to a Lithium battery, will there be any issues? I've read warnings not to fully drain a lithium battery due to damage/fire. Is there some warning from the tank or circuitry in the battery pack to prevent or warn of getting too low?
Thanks
Dave

Re: Heng Long Tiger 1 Ni-MH
In short-no there is not
I was told to put the battery on charge as soon as it went flat, then once fully charged to run it for a minute or two.

Re: Heng Long Tiger 1 Ni-MH
Thanks for the reply.
I sent the same question to Service heng-long-panzer.de and the reply I just received was "the tank shut down before the battery is drained too low and damaged."
So I take i there must be circuitry on the 7.0 board that senses voltage and shuts down?
