COMMENTS: In addition to NiMH batteries, Lithium batteries can be used to
           power both power systems of the Siren ARF. Using Lithium batteries
           will increase your flight times substantially while decreasing the
           final weight of the model slightly. The following are the
           recommended Lithium batteries for the Siren ARF.

           Brushed Sport Package
            This power system requires two 7.4V 1500 mAh batteries wired in
            parallel for a 2S-2P configuration. Required for this is:
             Two Great Planes Lithium-Polymer packs
             Two W.S. Deans 2-Pin Ultra Plugs      WSDM3001
             One W.S. Deans Wet Noodle Flex Wire   WSDC1410

            Brushless Option One
             This power system requires two 11.1V 1500mAh LiPo batteries
             wired in parallel for a 3S-2P configuration. This configuration
             will deliver slightly less performane than the 10-cell NiMH pack,
             but the run time will be increased to 5-6 minutes. Required is:
              Two Great Planes LiPo 1500mAh 11.1V 3-cell pack
              Two W.S. Deans 2-Pin Ultra Plugs   WSDM3001
              One W.S. Deans Wet Noodle Wire     WSDC1410

             Brushless option 2
              Four 7.4V 1500mAh LiPo batteries wired in series and parallel
              for a 4S-2P configuration. This configuration will deliver the
              highest performance and 4-5 minutes of run time. Required is:
               Four Great Planes LiPo 1500mAh 7.4V 2-cell packs
               Four W.S. Deans 2-Pin Ultra Plugs     WSDM3001
               One W.S. Deans Wet Noodle Flex Wire   WSDC1410

                                                                  kpm12/10/2004
