What kind of cells are you going to get? They run about $6 for the gp3300 $7 for the gp 3700 and $8 for the ibc 3800. Not positive on prices. That is for a cell price.

i was thinking just plain old gp 3300, cheap but great performance, can you get matched or zapped ones?

You can get matched and zapped in all of the above.
I not sure on the gearing area. If I had a few ratios like tranny and rears I could figure it out.

meh, i am not sure what you mean by that, how much extra does it cost to get matched in them?

I am not sure on the price of matching and zapping. If you didn't understand what I was saying about zapping and matching or the ratios.

the ratios, do you have normal ones or zapped in your truck? with my 7xl, 9920, and 18 normal gp 3300 and proper gearing what would i hit?

i would recommend the ibc 3800s.....there cheaper at the right places. i think i have found them for 5.50 a cell which was the same as the gp 3300s.

I have some gp 3300 and 3700 not matched. I not sure on zapping but I don't think so. MIne does good. From what I have read zapping gives you more volt for a few cycles. Then it goes back to normal voltage. It also shorts the life of battery alittle bit.
As far as ratios. How many times does the input shaft turn to the out put shaft. LIke the pinion and spur. Example 66 tooth spur and a 22 tooth pinion would give you a 3 to 1 ratio. If you know the tooth count on the gears and such I could figure it out. I just don't have a clue what a savage runs.


That Is cheap squee. Pm me a site if you could.

so with gp3300 18 cells could i get about 45-50 MPH

I think you should. I have got over 50 with 18cells. It was on a emaxx though.

ok thanx, that should be very good. If i can get 40 i will be happy.

I think you will be happy. Good luck toby. Happy rcing.

same too you, I am so excited for this project, i just wish it would come together quicker

I would do 18 cells.... Just try the gearing...

use c cell pacsk!@ they go up to 5000mah!! come on!! i wanan see how they perform
