LOL pistol what???

Thank you Neil, are they base don GP4300's i tried some of those once and they werent very good, huge voltage drop under load. If not I may well try them, give me a price and i'll have a few off you.

On the plus side these tip top EP4200's are pretty good! just had a test outside on the street and the truck is mighty so im good for another 6 months or so!

I've no idea what they're based on, but I dont think they'd actually be all that much good for the mighty Neu and MMM, better for smaller stuff now I think about it....

Definitely think Lipo's are the way to go tho. For the price of Zippies, Hyperions, C-Tech's these days, it's hard to pass them up. Especially considering some NiMh cells are just as expensive, or more in some cases.

That is quick... It still has a lot more in it to lift the front wheels... Very nice.

That's the most powerful nimh setup I've seen. Imagine what it'd do with lipos!!!


Get me back into RC!

how where the NimH where they hot?.... Dude, if you went lipos, that would just be insane man.... Maybe it's because the NiMH is unable to provide the amps?....
