How the hell would I wire that?

[Arct1k]

Alright now give the guy a break. Geeze.

Now I am scared to ask a question on here.

Save that crap for the Traxxas forum.

Nothing wrong with being a concerned shopper.

Keep this up and there will be one less individual in the hobby.

That's it reno, you're next. Freeze has become our whipping boy, but only because he sticks around and takes it.

He's a good sport, and loves to learn like the rest of us. If we rip on ya, we like ya, or we like ripping on ya.

GAME ON !

To keep costs down while trying these new and somewhat risky turnigys, I decided just to get a pair of these to start with. If I do or don't like them or I want more power from 6s, i'll go from there and won't be out much money.

I've got stuff coming from my LHS, Amain hobbies, Hobbyparts, Hobbyking, Team TCS and Bad horsie to start work on "Frostbyte II" I spent a bunch of money this morning, I love pay day!

Can you solder? Since these packs come with 5.5mm bullets and the Flux esc will have Deans on it.

I'm letting the LHS do that for me

i used to have the hobby store do all my soldering, because i couldn't do it very well. then, i found out that flux helps a ton and since i got some flux and a better iron, my soldering is near perfect and 8awg is nothing now.
there are also a few soldering videos that i watched that helped too.

back on subject, those are the exact lipos that i run in my flux when i run 4s and they have been great. they usually take the full 5200-5400 back even with my lvc set at 3.4v. these batteries along with most newer, lower resistance packs like a higher cutoff such as 3.4v/cell or even 3.5.

Yeah, i'll be sticking with 3.5v cutoff after learning my lesson the hard/expensive way with my SMC's

well, if you stick with stock gearing and avoid giant tires, those batteries should last you muuuch longer than both sets of those POS SMC lipos. i have 4 of them and they are all still going strong after about 8 months. my truggy stresses batteries a lot more than my flux and they are fine in my truggy and don't break a sweat in the flux. you are good to go!

I am interested to see how those hardcase lipos do... Seem like a great price if the hold up as well as scarletboa (which is a quite gay username) says they do.
