Generally nor have I, Brian with LIfePo4 for RX packs. Although those handheld Battery Checkers (mine is a Great Power) are way out with their percentage readings especially with Life packs. I estimate about 10 -15 % under reading. eg; shows 62%, put on charger and watch amps being put back in and the pack was nearly fully charged. So did not need charging after all.:(

LiFePo4 cells have an almost flat discharge curve right up to the cliff edge. So a battery checker is always going to have a difficult time judging percentage capacity remaining when they can only base this on voltage.

Which is why Mike, where I can, use lipos and HV servos or lipos and regulators for planes with standard servos.
