| Which Waterproof Battery to Run?
Okay so my SCX10 is pretty much for mudding/water rides and mild bashing... No hardcore crawling. I am running a 20t pinion with 87t stock spur with a Titan 550 12T and XL-5. Should I get a 9.6V 8 cell hump pack off MaxAmps as the battery tray is made for a 6 cell pack? I am worried running 9.6V would burn out the motor very fast. Anyone with experience here? Or should I go with 7 cell 8.4V and figure out some way to hold it down better (it keeps flying back out the rear). Currently I am just running it with a standard 6 cell 7.2V. Not planning on using LiPO as this ESC does not have a LVC and if I get an external one that will defeat the waterproof setup I'm after. |
