Pullstarter - just one more comment... I've driven the 4.5 on 12/14 when I mocked up my truck and it really wasn't that interesting. If I was sticking with that general battery setup, and I wanted novak product, I would go for the 6.5. The 4.5 REALLY craves good batteries as it pulls a lot of juice. Top of the line 14 cell nimhs would be the minimum I would run with it. The difference from 12 cells nimh to good 4s lipo was unbeliveable.
