Here is my reasoning for wanting HV, how many amps do you realy want to make your expensive lipo's put out? Lets say you have a well performing RC that is pulling 1200 watts, not insane speed but enough to lift the front tires.
12S=44.4v / 1200w=27 amps (1250mah)
6S=22.2v / 1200w=54 amps (2500mah)
3S=11.1v / 1200w=108 amps (5000mah)

Will your lipo's, motor, and ESC be safer and last longer at 27,54, or 108 amps? Simple math.

Simple math. If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...
