Default Axial SCX10 owners, what batt size?

Hi,

Just wondering what size (mah) batteries do you use with your SCX10?
and do you have the battery placed in the front or the back?

Thank you.

Newbie Question.

I use zippy flightmax packs from my mini revo up front. I either use a 2s 2200, a 1600 3s, or the 2 2200s together for 4s with an lrp 21.5 on a mamba max pro.

I run 3s 5000mah Blue Lipo behind the front shock towers, Tekin FXR, Axial 27t with stock gearing. I haven't checked run times, but it's a looong time, and I hammer on it.

I guess Honcho has to put it's battery up front with stock body.

I just wanted to know what other drivers did because with front mount battery I thought I was putting too much weight on front.

I guess my 2S 5000mah (batt from Slash) is too heavy for front as it tips over to side easier compare to rear mount.

I normally run a 3s 2200mah batt up up front but have also ran a 2s 5000mah out front with pretty much the same performance. But the fact that I run 3oz weight in each front tire probavly makes a difference.

I use a 12000mah max amps 2s with a velenion brushless and 24t pinion and i can run for hours with this thing and it gives me the added traction i need for sled pulling and keeps the ass down while im in the mud not to mention crazy wheels speed
