Now I have a Ni-Mh battery but I want to change to Lipo.
I want one that has little weight, this battery would be fine? Zippy 3S 2.200mha. 20C. has little power?
Perhaps, be better this one: Zippy 2800mha. 30C
I do not know, what would you think that battery right?

Greetings !!!!!!!!!!!!

What voltage is your Ni-Mh battery now?
An 3s lipo is 11,1V.
An 2s lipo is 7,4V.

It is 7.2V, but FXR admits 3s lipo, 11.1v.

The question is whether the 44 amps that gives the 2200 3s 20C battery is sufficient for the motor Tekin 55T and how long it would last

[Tim.V]

20C is more then enough for your scaler.
I run my axial scx10 honco on 2S lipo's.
I have 2400mAh and 4000mAh lipo's.
Runtime depends on your driving style and the underground where you drive on.
But it probably would be around 1hour and a little bit your 2200mAh.

It realy depends.
For example: i drive sometimes my 4000mAh empty in 1 hour. But other times i can drive with my 2400mAh for 4 hours.

Like i said, it all depends on how you drive, and where you drive.

Maybe a better idea, runtime with the 2200mAh lipo will be around the same as with an 2500mAh Ni-Mh battery. Maybe longer now, because of the higher voltage...

Edit: does your ESC has lipo-cutoff? You realy need to know when your lipo is empty. If you keep driving with your empty lipo, you may trow your lipo by the thrash.

Ok !!!!!

Yes, the esc have lipo-cutoff for 2S and 3S

Thanks !!!!!!!

I am also using 3S 2200mah 20C lipo packs. I just used my EagleTree datalogger to test my SCX10 and I drew a max of 10A, with an average through the run of 1A. So the packs are definitely enough to handle that amount of current. You should get around 2hrs runtime from a full charge, but could be more or less depending on how you drive.

Thank you all !!!!!
Finally I bought 3S 2.800mha. 30C, I think I'll have more time and strength!!
