Default Dual 35s batteries

Ok this might be a dumb question, but i have no idea what I'm doing. i have recently modded the placement of my batteries so i can run two batteries at once. i was wondering if it would fry any of my electronics.the pic below shows how i have it set up.[IMG]Photobucket[/IMG]

If your looking to dbl capacity at same voltage you want a parallel conection. Basically both +'s together and both -'s together.
it looks like thats what you have from what i can see.

+1.
The above is a way to ~double capacity. The ESC should be fine with that.
A series connection (- of one pack to + of the other pack) will ~double the pack voltage but maintain the capacity which may also fry the ESC.

Yes that would put you a dbl voltage, same capacity.

So if you have 2s packs that would give you 4s power w same capacity.

If your esc is rated to 4s enjoy the extra speed, if not you might see the magic smoke...
