Is it normal?
 
Today I ran my SuperMaxx in the open for the first time and the truck was like WAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH SET ME FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE......

It was a whole new experience for me. Incredible power!!!!

My setup is a 1950/10, 6s FP EVO20 3700MAH LIPOS, SCHULZE 149.18 and gearing of 21 pinion and a 36T spur with a Slipperential.

Even the slipperential was not able to keep the truck on the ground the whole time!!

Any way, I accedintally lost a pillow ball retainer and noticed something that caught my attention:

Lipos were a bit warm. My driving style was monsterous, indeed, but is it normal for the lipos to get warm after a few passes? or probably the motor's heat affected the packs?

Thanks,

WHAT A RIDE!!!

How hot were they? They actually perform better when warm around 100-110*F is normal.

Just barely warm. Not even hot.

that should be no problem - for your own good measure temp the batts with a temp gun (for your own knowledge) so you'll know exactly how hard your pushing it......

captn, after a full run with my 1950/7 on 4s 3700 flightpowers they get slightly warm after the full run, but my maxamps got a good bit warmer so it really shows the quality of the cells.

Did you find any difference in performance between the MaxAmps and the FPs?
