Hey, new member here. Getting back into rc after a break. Last vehicle i ran was a ofna .21 buggy 4-5 years back. I used to race electric long ago and packs i ran back then were sanyo scrc 1700,s and panasonic p170,s (good then)

I,m building a e maxx for a in town\cottage basher. Will be running 8xl, mamba max. I,m kinda a power freak so i,d like to run 5s lipo. I,m only wondering if i go with really good 7 cell packs will i get lipo punch thru the whole pack or only half a pack or so.

I,d already be taking a power cut going with 14 cells vs 5s but if 14 cells will really scream it then i may consider running them. My only prob is for the price 5s isn,t really that much more money than 14 good cells and i know 5s should kick 14 cells any day.

I,m only gonna bash with this and maybe run one race with the nitro guys to try to show up all the revo,s here. Mainly i want some opinions of guys that have ran 5s and 14 good cells and what they can say for power/speed difference. I want alot of power!

I,ve never ran good new packs or lipo just researched alot and watched some vehicles. Thanks for any help.

I already know all the driveline stuff/fans etc etc, I,ve already learned a ton here, thanks.
