batterie capacity question

Very encouraged that you guys are thinking that 60/66amps is enough... Hopefully 80amps at 5s will be ok....

David. PVI si vous examinez mon fil de Truggy au sujet de la rue hyper 5s recommandé par Mike pour assurer des 1515 2.5D

That's continuous tho. 60C burst. I imagine his peaks are only ~80A or so.

If he has an ET he can judge how close he can cut it. If I am doing a pure racer, I hate to carry more batt than I need. Its just ballast at that point to break parts and F up handling. FWIW, on my CRT.5, I was only running a 3S 20C/40C 2100 batt on a 12s can (2900kv.) A 30c/60C 2500 batt had more punch, but the smaller batt was fine and didn't get hot at all. Peak amps were ~80 I think.

Right now I'm only running my 3S 2200mAh with my TC3 Truggy with the HW 120A controller and Novak HV4.5 motor. I get close to 20 minutes of insane run and braking action. I get constant 10 minutes plus on the 2 Kong Power 3S 2200mAh in my MBX5T. So for only 6 minutes the single 30C 6S 2200mAh pack will do. The balance will be some what perfect as your motor will weigh about the same. The pack is small enough to give you options to move things around. I have attached a picture of an initial set up in my Ofna. Here you can see another arrangement: http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...9&postcount=12, http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...0&postcount=13. I might get the 30C 2200mAh and add 2 in parallel in my MBX5T for a killer set up.

thank you to all guys, your reply is very appreciated, but i don't know what to do. My MBX5T is pretty heavy, i run Badland on it because the track where i run is very loose, and this tire is heavy. I use nechanical brake, and my truggy is near to 11.5 lbs with a 5000mAh, 4s pack.
So i don't want to run twin pack on it.
I think that if i choose a Flightpower 3700mAh, 25C, 6s, it would be enough for a 6-7 min race?

I think you should get 12-15 minutes, depending on all the usual stuff.
