|  Runtime seems abit low?
Hey guys, Iv been noticing lately that im not getting a whole lot of runtime out of my clod. I just then took it out to see what my complete run time of 6 minutes. Im running a 3800 Cell pack which has been modded to run alot the front of the diff. Whats the go? The packs are abit old and the guy even said they were when i bought them. Could this be why? :S Thanks. |

it depends what run times where you getting before, and what motors are you running? try to cycle the pack a few times if its been sitting for a while. and if that fails go over to Holmes hobbies and get yourself a lipo pack  |

Im only running twin silvercans and towerpro mg995's. I cant cycle the pack because i dont have a cycle charger. iv got a 3300 pack sitting here, so i might tear it down and mod it. | |

Its not stock gearing, its about walking pace. What do you mean paralel or series? Thanks. | |

its how the motors are wired to the esc. in a stock clod it has a power - economy switch wich changes from series to parallel.
