Default battery questons

hey
i have a battery out of one of my 1/18th cars and just wondering would it work for the WK because it would be a great physical size,
it is a 6x2/3a, 7.2v 1100mah.
just wondering would it be enough to power it and how long would it last useing stock esc, 65t motor and metal geared servo?
thanks

Should do ok, I wouldn't think you would have more than 15 minutes of run time.

As long as you know how to solder new connectors on..I guess you could.

Default yup

With the right gearing or trans you can get well over 20 mins. I got a r2d trans in mine with a front axle mounted 2/3 6cell pack works great

I would buy a new battery to run on the WK. Not worth the trouble. Been there.

hey
yeah i was going to buy a new battery, just thinking of what sort, if the one off my 1/18th would work i was thinking of just buying of them because of the physical size of it, but i will probably get something else.
thanks
