Runtimes, and curious about LiPos...

[Dagger Thrasher]

Hey guys,

As you know I plan to install a twin BL setup in my Dagger sometime soon...it's really aggravating seeing as I planned to have at least half the money by now, but just haven't been able to find a job. I'll get there in the end....:M:

But anyhoo, I plan to run two Feigao 8S motors with Warrior 9918 controllers. I was planning to use two 8-cell NiMh 3300 packs, but now I'm not so sure. I might use 3600/3700's if needs be. First of all, what kind of runtimes could I expect with this setup? I'll be racing with nitros, and need to have a racing runtime of at least 7-8 minutes, preferably around 10.

But just recently I got interested in LiPos batts...I most likely won't be able to afford them, but I'm just curious. What LiPos would you suggest?

Thanks for any help!
