Oh yah, the A123's you NEED to double them up, you are working them too hard running single cell (it's only 2.3Ah), doing 2p you get 140 amp cont. plus more punch from higher voltage, and more than double runtime.

8s1p running a 12XL would be a monster for sure, but i think you are better off going 6s2p running a 8 or 9XL motor. Which I should have done... i should have got the 8XL running (i got 7XL) 6s2p pack. For more power and runtime.
