No, because your batteries are really shit, it kills the performance by half.

you need more power than your batteries can deliver. Did we ever told you something wrong Ncabz?

Its just like trying to make a motor rated for 20volts run on 12 cells, it wont give you ultimate performance, how old are your batteries, what kind are they?

is that why teh batts were warm, while everythign was ice cold? I got some gp3300 i can try with. JJust need to solder soem wire

How many cells do the GP 3300s have?

Yeah, i'm sure it will drive much faster, you are at half the power now..

I just saw that vid Country has. It looks good! with better cells, it will be much faster though! you got 12 gp3300's? they will give much, much better results than those other cells you're using.

And if those fail, it might be your charger!

WHAT! Just kidding

Yeah, i wonder; NBCaznmaster, did those GP3300's worked miracles?!

I upped teh pinion to 17t, faster. The batts got really hot. Motors and esc are fine. Dunno why. The batts drained really fast, like less then 5 minutes.

They should ahve lasted a bit longer, maybe its time for a new charger?

ture, i have a hobbico 15 min quick charger. I got a dynamite peak charger. But it takes like 3 hours to charge. Dunno if thats normal. THe peak charger has been actign funny.

15 min?!?!?! thats quick, that charger should ONLY be used with 1500mah packs or less. Try to use the dynamite, you wont regret it.

Hey Nbcazn. if you watch the charger you can charge with your timed charger, just restart the timer till the batteries feel warm to the touch. They should be close to full charge.

Are the batteries NIMH or NICD?

nimh, peak charger is really wiered, after im done chargering, teh batt is stone cold.. It takes and extremely long time too.
