I wrote before that i bought 9XL combo for Savage but plans is changed and bought HB LSP. Now i thinking...
And i thin i will stick for start on my 9XL
I still think L cans more for Buggy
Maybe go for A123 in 5S2P.
Main thing with lipos i dont like is, that they not last long, so many % of fail in my opinion. Even if u behave with them with care
So if i will buy lipo i am want for sure buy additional warranty but on fail returnig battery and replacing procedure realy complicated (u need to proov that u returning product under warranty they take again some money about 5% from paperwork) otherwise customs will shave me again 25% lipo cost. Redicilous.
But with A123 i can rebuild packs easier and replace damaged cells by self buying those from net even with price $16,5 per cell.
Anyway i have little bit time to think.
But couple thins i learned that u still recommend to go higher voltage i will gett better rinetimes becouse motor work more efficent.
And reduce throtle travel is bad idea (probably realy hard for ESC).

Thanks for suggestion
