I'm not complaining about the car, or parts. It's just, I change cars very often, as I like experimenting with something new. The 9E just didn't quite suit my purpose. I can get at most 12 minutes on the track with the batteries I use. I'm looking for 20 minutes, so I have to change packs. No-one does packs large enough - capacity wise - but small enough to fit in the box nicely. I would need ~6600mAh at 18.5 V to acheive this. No-one in England imports such a battery.

My new set-up is two 18.5V 3300mAh packs in parallel, one each side of the centre driveshaft. This works better, as it doesn't off balance the chassis so much.

I know I could have got a 6S pack that would work, but, like many others, I don't want to run my MMM on 6S for reliability reasons.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
