You know, for $120 the FP pack looks pretty nice... Any idea of your average current during a race? Errmmm nevermind, you'd need an avg. current of 75A to kill that 5K pack in 4 minutes! Go for it!
Awesome. I have that exact pack in stock at my shop.
I was also looking into these packs, http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXULS3&P=ML . Does anyone have any experience with them? I only ask because the track preffers a pack with some kind of hard case around it. I can whip something up for the FlightPower pack if need be but I have heard good things about the SMC packs as well.
Will I need to worry about any heat issues with the FlightPower pack after the full 4 minutes of racing?
As for setting up a LVC, should I use an external unit that is hooked up the the "Y" harness coming off the pack to the esc's? Im not quite sur if using the cutoffs built into the esc's would be a good idea but that being said I really have no idea at all.
Sorry for all the rookie questions but man do your guys know your stuff.
BTW, the truck features a ThunderTech ripper chassis with mostly stock clod buster geaboxes on it. Ill post some more detailed build pics and videos of it once I get the lipo cranking.
