Oh ok. The pp has alot of room for battery space along its left side of the chasis and I wanted to get a larger battery, like possibly a 6 or 8 cell that all one stick not seperate. From what ive heard from the esc can handle up to 80 amps, is that true? So im thinking about getting a 2600mah 7.2V battery with arround 60 amps (i think it was). so I could do that right?
Thnks for helping alfred

i hooked a 3300mah 7.2v battery up to my propusle truck and it worked great i played with the truck offroad for about a hour and a half straight! hard climbing, jumping, the works. but i blew my high speed motor. so i took the motor back and they gave me a new one(i told the guy it never worked,lol). the bigger battery(the 3300mah) was to heavy and it was making the car off balance. so i use the propusle 1400mah battery now. so the esc should hold up to a 2600mah. question, if i rewire the battery connecters and use a 9.6v could i faster the car or is 9.6v to much?

You will be faster, but you will need to check the spec's on the esc to make sure that it will handle that voltage.

No it should work because thats what I did with a JADA rc charger the output mah is 170 instead of the 150 on the charger that comes with it.

Like i said in the other post please make sure that the esc will be able to handle 9.6volts.....you will need to check the spec's.
