I ran 3s2p in my rustler. It worked great! got a little warm on occasion, but it should do just fine in a crawler. Just be sure not to use more then 3s. You also might want to run a BEC. |

The A123 pack are 3.3 volts nominal per cell so you be ok with a 3 cell pack. Thats just 9.9 and the xl-5 is rated for 8cell nimh or 9.6 volts. The A123 should make a nice battery pack for a xl-5.  Just make sure your charger will charge A123, not all of them will. Randy |
