I run 3s hard packs. They fit in the tray but I secure them with a Velcro strap, I run 5000 and 7000 packs.

7200 mah 3s hard pack from SMC racing. It's a very tight fit, but it does fit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I run GENS ACE hard packs like I said 5000 and 7000. SMC would be my first choice but they were out of stock when I needed batteries. |

Running a HobbyStar 5200mAh hard case & GensAce 5500mAh soft pack, and both fit the tray with the top brace at its highest position. The hard case is a just a hair tight, but nothing to worry about.

You cant fit a 5000? You know you can adjust the bars higher right? I only run 5000 reaction 3s 20c and it fits perfect. I have a 4800 3s softpack as a spare but its too small unless i stick foam in there with it. Only ran that pack twice as a spare. Last edited by Shinchu; 08-14-2017 at 10:14 PM.

SMC 7600mah 3s - Remove the bar and add a battery strap. Works perfectly.  |

So, I'm positive it's not due to the battery, but I'm getting 32 minutes out of her. The motor over heats and shuts down. Pretty sure it's because I changed out stock pinion for 17t. -Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |

I'll probably swap in my castle electronics. I'm more worried about stripping gears and breaking axles
