the only problem is the zippy-r lipos are huge (about 175mm long) and i have had to use a homemade battery mount to mount the 2 4s packs in parallel for 9000mah = alot of runtime 
i think they are 21C/35C bursts but can anyone confirm this?
together for the pair they weigh about 900g so i would like to have to only use one and it would be easier to mount so will 21C continuous and 35C burst be enough for my setup?
thanks richard |
In a buggy it shouldn't be a problem to run that on a single pack. I would keep the gearing a bit lower but with gearing to run with nitros on a track you should be fine. 40+ MPH speed runs and you may run into problems with a single pack.
For what it's worth I run a 5s 4500mah 25C pack in a truggy without an issue. The extra voltage with conservative gearing for the track does help but a truggy is bigger, heavier, and has more rotating mass.
