,, ok i tried 2 7-cells packs 1 8-cell pack and 1 6-cell gp2000

all charged at 1.5 amp @3mv

the 7cells were fine,, lasted about 10minutes each,, lots of power and speed,,

the 8 cells extreme top end and a quick accelerator

gp2000,,, wow we,, this thing had more torque and get up than the 7 cells and maybe even the 8 cells,, probably same top end as the 7 cell,, but not as fast as the 8 cell.. ,, but before i could really do any reall test runs,, the rear passenger outdrive was blown out,, it wouldnt hold the dogbong inplace to spin the wheel,,, ,,, so i played with it,, and just said forget it,,, i kept on running just 3wheels,, and then one of the outdrives in the front blew,,, an then after 13minutes the rears were gone completely...


after running the car with only one wheel working i decided to put everyting up,, after 18 minutes of runtime.. ,,, that single wheel still had tons of power to it,,,

i just orered the steel outdrives from that ebay auction... and when i get them,, then we will see exactly what that pack can do,,,

the construcion of them was very good,thanks to Mike at cheapbatterypacks.com, i just messed up on the design,,, it is 2 packs of 3cells attached be wires,, one of the packs should have had the top cell directly ontop of one of the bottom cells instead of in the middle of the 2 bottom ones..

in a few minutes i will provide pics of the pack.... this pack is great,,, i will be ordering a second pack but this time it will be done right..

btw i have the mamba 8000 for those that didnt know,, runtimes suck with this motor ,, the price you pay for speed,,

Lipo's are So much lighter and pack so much punch.

I can't even use my six cell packs anymore.


C'mon... whats the worst that could happen :)
