Default Battery Suggestions?

Hello am in a bind right now, really don't know with what battery's to run with only thing I know it is going to be lipo 4 sure, but really don't want sadel packs on the front axel. Was looking into a small sized battery that I can still strap down to the battery plate of my AX10, but not a full size battery. Any suggestions would be great so I can start crawling my new ride.

depends on what your ESC can handle(look in the owners manual for your ESC to find out)

then PM a vendor on here and see what they have to say about what battery would be best for your needs. you can also search around in the electronic section and see what others are doing and using and see what works best and what dosent

searching is your friend

Here you go. You can use this as long as you have a 35 turn or higher motor.

I am using a lipo on the top links on the front of both my rigs. I used lexan to make a plate to fit the links and zip tied the battery down.

Here is a pic of the battery on the Edge.
