Why am I slow?

I can always use the extra ESC in other vehicles.

As for my idea of trying 5S...what risks are there in getting a 3S 1600mah battery to run with one of my 2S 1800mah batteries? They would be the same make and C rating and within 10 cycles of each other as far as age.

for you to run a 5S, almost all the variables have to be equal not to damage the other pack. same mah, same C rating, same company, similiar cycles...alll the chemestry has to be identical in all things but cell count and exact cycles. (i'd say within 10 or so)
