| 7 cell ok?
i am running a 7 cell battery and keep frying servos and one esc so far. could this be cause of my driving or is the 7 cell feeding to much power to the esc and servos? is anyone else running a 7 cell that could help me?

I run a 7 cell in my crawler, I just finished it, but I have had no problems in testing. Is your ESC rated to handle 7 cells?

I used to have a Power Pulse in my Stampede. I say used to because it cought on fire, If I were you I would get something different before u have a burnt up crawler. I did some searching on on some others sites and I am not the only one to have a Power Pulse catch fire.

| esp Most decent ESP’s have a regulated voltage going to the receiver. refer to tech data sheet and most of the will show which resistor to cut so you can run the receiver and servos on a separate pack. |
