Default Modding the 2s goat to 3s

Hi I was told by a friend that thier is a way to mod the novak goat 2cell to a 3cell. After looking over the pages and searching I can not find it I have asked my friend who found it but he also can not find it again. :?

Would it be possible if someone could post up a link of thier setup or a link to a thread which shows in done.

Thanks for your time in advance.

You might ask some more people, but its probably like when I ran 4 and 5s on my mamba max which is only rated for 3s. I used a CC bec and bypassed the internal esc bec, the internal bec is what determines what volts you can use.

There really is no mod to do this. The main factor that makes it a 2S Li-Po only is the built in LVC for Li-Po's is set for 6 volts. Running a 3S Li-Po on that will kill the pack. I have seen the esc take 3S packs but there is simply no built in cut off to do it safely.

The LVC is true as he stated but other than that, the bec mod like i said will work.
