battery pack's for mambamax ?

[speedy]

Hi !


I need to get som mean pack's for my new mambamax 5700 powered rust'y:027: what's the best possible batterypack's i can get ?

if i go lipo the i need atleast 8000mah pack's right ? they have to take 100amp's i bursts right ?

and if i whant to use a 8cell nimh pack what cells are best ?

[squeeforever]

Go for something like a 3S 8000mah pack. And no, more like 100 amp burst but the continuous rating is more important. The MaxAmps packs chould be ok. If you were to run NiMh, go for IB3800's.

How about some of this packs ?http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...200_PRO&cat=22 i'm thinking of buying 3set's and make 2st 8cell pack of them how about that ? those pack choud give me like 12min+ runtime and blazing speed right ? 45-50mph coud be possible right ? and how much choud i gear down ? runnin a 16/86T G- combo when i'm using 6cell pack's. the motor get's up to 140F top's ! esc 115F

Those would also be a good choice. I have some and like them. They should give you decent runtimes, but it will depend on how hard you are on it. Gear down 2 teeth to start.

Are the 4K cells any good ? they are so cheap !:027:

What you running it in? Some Lipos (such as the 8ah 3s pack from Maxamps) won't fit in a stock chassis. Best measure up for Lipos! I found for my T4, the 4ah 3s packs fit.

Avoid them, best go with IB or GP.

The 4K would be the next best thing. I have heard from several people that they are great.

yes, all four of mine for my maxx is crazy, the run times are about the same as my friends ib 4200s, and punches out 7.5+ in voltage.

so far they are great. and seems to be satisfying me.:)

I have them and they do fine with the mamba5700, maxamps has a new 4.4K in place of the 4K, I have them and will play with them and tell how they do
