Default 10000MAH 3 Cell Lipo? Run Times?

Ok guys, im curious about going to lipo in the near future maybe..

What kind of run times would I get with this with my AX10, Crawlmster Outrunner 1000KV with a Quark 33..

Probably a week! My friend runs 7.4v 4350mah lipos on the brushless goat in an AX10 and gets about 6-7 hours of play time. I would suggest getting a couple smaller batteries, that thing is bigger than a sub c stick pack.

You could pick up 5 of their 1550s for about the same price. Alot more compact and easier to fit in your rig. Probably about an hour run time apiece.

Also a good choice would be the 2100s

Like I said, I dont even know if I want anything to do with lipo, as I have 5 perfectly good and 3 of them are new, saddle packs for the AX10, but they only get me like 45 mins of run time.

I just like the idea of having one pack, thats like all day.

I didnt realize that was so big

Yeah, that thing is huge. A 2100 would be great for really long runtimes.

How long do you think a 2100 would last?

I get at least 2 hours out of my 3c 2100s with a 35t. they seems to usually peak around 2400 though, I don't know if they're underrated or if my charger's not accurate. Either way, I get tired of it before I run them both down all the way.

.....I guess I have a heavy finger then I get about an hour in my 2.2 with a 2100 lipo. I ain't complaing in any way what so ever. An hours run time is PLEANTY for running around my rock garden at home or running a comp.

I'm using the Vislero 3s 1300mah packs available from cheapbatterypacks.com (I got mine from HH, but don't see them on his site anymore) and have been really happy with them. They're small enough to be mounted on the front axle and give about an hour of run time. 3s rocks, too.

Not sure what your diffs are ratio wise. I look at final drive ratio,not pinion and spur size.

I'm running 18/81 spur......my final ratio on the rig itself in 37:1 That combined with a heavy finger will net lower run times. Sucks having to charge more but it sure is fun driving them
