I got that from the post eariler. :rolleyes: What I don't understand is why you'd run an extra battery pack if you don't need to. Only reasons I could see wanting to run the 7.4v lipo are to gain extra runtime by having the servos run off a seperate battery pack (instead of having a ubec feed off the main pack) or are trying to get extra speed/torque by giving the servos more then 6v (which is the reason I think the OP made this thread).

The suggestion of running the ubec off the lipo could theoretically help runtime, but I doubt it would be worth the effort.

If I'm missing a reason (other than the OP's truck possibly being nitro/gas), please let me know.
