Default 18 volt/5s in a wraith...

I got bored the other day while waiting for my lipos to charge and wired up a Bosch 18v lithium battery. Wow drive straight is all you can do.
Running it through my novak 13.5t ballistic crawler with 23.9:1 overall gearing.
I may make a mount to slide the battery onto the slant back like a spare tire. Will post a video later if the rain lets up.

It doesn't really heat up bad at all.

Be interesting to see how long it is till you break something.

I ease into the throttle not sure these batteries can handle hard launches. They are only 1.3ah rated. It takes off like 2-3s then rockets
