no 6s because of quark's "6s problems"

j, the packs got hot? or the motor? think it might stand a chance in a 5lb car?

The motor gets hot. Its just the rpm that does it. On 5s you take it way past its peak effiency range and it just starts generating a ton of heat. Your right about the light car you might be better off than a truck. Shouldnt hurt to give it a try, just pay attenetion to the heats.

(Ive never had an issue with the truerc lipo packs getting anything more than slightly warm in any setup)
