Coles It was a pleasure meeting and talking with you in Ohio. Congrats on the top 5 finish. The stock Cliff Climber esc will not work with one battery. It requires both batteries to be installed. The batteries are wired in series not in parallel. J Last edited by jdawg53; 07-24-2008 at 10:17 PM. |

| You do know that the early traxxas evx speed controls could be used with one battery by making a dummy connector on the other end, right. What I asked has been done before. Nothing in the traxxas specifications indicated it can or cannot be done.

I just tried hooking up just one battery with the other battery plug shorted out ala EVX style. No go so far. I will put a deans on the other side and try batter slot 2.

John do you like how low geared it is right now? Or does it need more gears or a higher turn motor? | |

I'd really like to get one of these, but I don't want to invest in another ESC. I have a mamba 25 with Dimension Engineerings BEC that I know will handle the two 380 motors. I'm just wondering about the battery. Will this thing work with just one pack? I don't even know of any ESC's that are made for 2 battery packs except the one from Duratrax that comes on the RTR version.
