The thing is, any time I've run big capacity packs, like a GP3300 Nimh, I get like 2 hours of run time. My 5000 3S lipo lasts forever.

When I run a 2200 3S, with any motor really, I get over an hour. Run it in the Kyosho, and I get maybe half that. I don't like that.

So you feel that you need a 5000 3s?

I am dieing to drive this thing. But I just don't want to make the wrong pick on the motor and esc.

Well, no that's not exactly what I was saying. If dezmoon says his Novak Goat system is working good, then your choice would be a good one too. But what I am saying is that he seems to be getting not even half the run time I'd expect that battery to give him.

I run the 5000 3S in my CR-01 scaler truck and it will literally last all day, and then some. The GP3300s in my scaler last about two hours. He's saying his 3300s are worth only 45 minutes. That's not right, and I'm guessing it's because of the gearing in the axles. And my only proof is me killing my 2200 pack in half the time I normally get from it.

If you're good with 45 minutes from a big 3300 pack, go for it.

ive jumped up to a 5000 mah 2cell lipo from losi,,,ive ran it two days in a row for probably 50 minutes each day with only the first charge,,the 3300 was an older battery,,ive used for well over a year straight in an axial based tuber..much better run time now
