Lehner 1930/8 in 1/8th buggy, first impressions (#%*@! rain)

[bdebde]

I was a bit sceptical that the 1930 would be enough motor. But it has no problem running the light weight buggy.

I need a little input on battery selection now. The 5000 mah maxamps runs right at 30 min so I will need a 6000 to go for a 30 min main. Only thing is, all the tracks around here seem to run 15 min mains. I am leaning towards the Flightpower 3700's to further reduce the weight. They will put me under 7.5 lbs and make left/right balance nearly perfect. The discharge rate at 25C is nearly that of the maxamps 5000 at 20C. I think someone here is running Flightpower 3700's, I'd like to know how they work out. Or I could get the 4500's at 30C but they are pretty spendy! Any other thoughts on batteries for this motor and light buggy appreciated.
