You will need an external Lipo cut off b/c the XL5 doesn't have one built in. You can only run a 2 cell lipo (7.4V) b/c the max voltage that the XL5 can take is 9.6V.

Almost any cut-off can be waterproofed with plastidip or with a balloon.

I bought my batteries from here: http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...7&ParentCat=85 You would want a 2s 20c. Don't buy a 3s, it would fry your esc. The Mah rating is the batteries capacity, the more Mah, the more run time. You must pay attention to the size of the battery, so as you browse, check the dimesions of the batterys on a ruler in front of you. Chill Out Drunk | |

You need a Low Voltage Alarm, The LVC does not work on the blue water proof xl-5. I have the xl-5 for my scx10 also. Im looking for something to use myself, may just get a new speed control so i can run 3s!
