I was curius as to what limitation s there where in hooking up multiple packs in series and parallel. The following is the response from Kokam/FMA.

"The Scorpion packs were tested up to 4 in series, making an 8S pack. There should be no limit in parallel configurations, keeping in mind current limitations of the connectors and wire. The ESC and receiver wires are daisy chained through each pack to ensure the LVC works on each pack. The charging must always be done on single pack disconnected from the system. This is due to the common ground of multiple chargers shorting stuff when connected to multiple series packs at the same time.
