|  What lipo for my setup? Please help.
First let me say that I did search and could not find exactly what I was looking for. I have finished building my AX-10. Now the only 2 things left to purchase are lipo batteries and I guess a CC BEC. I have an ax-10 with stock tranny and the following electronics. Tekin 45T pro motor Tekin Fx-R esc I don't want anything to large in size because I will most likely run it over the front axles. I know I want to run 3S, but not sure about mAh size or "C" rating size. What can you guys recommend? Also I am using an iMax 6 charger with this. Thank you. |

typically yu can only get about 2000MAH and still have it on the front axle 15-1800 seems to be the norm, any bigger and it just doesnt fit. as far as c rateing goes you should be fine with about 25c or more, the high turn motors (45,55,65t) dont have a big draw, and with crawling your not full throttle all the time any way. alot of guys seem to be having good luck with the "e-bay " lipos saying they are just as good as the big $ brands... my set ups goin to be basically like yours excpet i went with the 35T pro motor.. these are the batteries i have http://cgi.ebay.ca/2x-25c-1500mAh-11...d=p3286.c0.m14 |

Ya want something in the 1100-1500 ah range not longer than 70mm and at least 25c continuous. 1500 will give ya up to 45 min runtime, a 1100 about 35 min. I'm running these: http://www.allerc.com/product_info.p...oducts_id=4508 |
