|  6cell conversion to 7 cell?
First off I have a 6-cell 3300mah matchpack ,and was wondering if I went to a 7-cell ,would I gain anything? would it be to much for speed control and servo?

Depends on what speed control and servo you have. We'll need a little more info to help you out. Generally, 7 cells will get you more wheelspeed and power.

If you run it parallel you will gain mh, if you run it series you will gain voltage... The ESC should handle up to 12 cells... Check the manufactures web site and or owners manual  |

The rooster crawler esc can handle 7 Ni-Cd/Ni-MH cells (1.2V/cell) or 2 Li-Poly cells So you will be allright, It will increase your torque and speed, If the receiver is powered off the esc the servo will be protected by the esc's Bec.
