But this setup requires custom building, which might be something you would prefer to not do.
But to answer your question, two packs should work with the HV-Maxx 4.5, just don't use the adjustable voltage modules (apparently they aren't made to handle the high current of brushless motors).

I'm in the research phase of doing my own 1/8th scale buggy conversion. What settings are you using to charge the A123 cells on your ICE and are you charging the pack in a 5S2P or 10S1P configuration? I'm trying to decide between using my ICE or buying a new higher capacity A123 capable charger when it becomes in available in a couple months.
