I designed my 1/8 buggy to work with standard 6 cell race packs or two lipo packs of similar size. I think I have ditched running nimh for the most part, so it's 4s lipos now.

I want to stick with 4s lipos to make things simple, but I could always change that. I might actually try a 3s if this thing has crazy power for my smallish track, like my franken-hacker motor I've been running. The buggy is just retarded fast on the maxamps 4s 6000s. And it's thermalling at about 6-7 minute mark under race conditions.

The controllers I have now don't like 5s and 6s. I think lower kv motors and 6s is the way to go but I can't do that now unless my new 125b decides it wants to be good to me.

I got a quick test run with a Feigao 9L and it runs strong, and it gave the MGM the same fits as my hacked hacker 12x.
