Converted XB8-tq

All I can say is this thing friggin rips! Xb8-tq, 9xl, 125b, A123 li-ion 3s1p x 2 in series, s9451 for steering,an s9351 for brakes, and a 3pks with the fasst 2.4ghz.

My main goal was to not hack up anything in the car and utilize all of the stock holes in the chassis. I can also go from electric to nitro in under a 1/2 hour.

Cool. How much run time are you getting with only 2300mah?

I'm going to try and get up to a track next friday for some runtimes.

I'm going to race this thing so here's some more criteria that was on the list before the build;

1. Duplicate battery packs to make swapping in and out easier. Especially during a 30 min. main.

2. Batteries that offered high voltage, but didn't weigh a ton. And something that wouldn't catch on fire while charging.

3. Keep the stock chassis layout and not add any holes to the chassis.

4. Be durable enough to handle the power yet be easy to work on .

5. Fit everything underneath the body.

I can fit more batteries, but I'll need a new charger as the a123 will only charge up to 3s packs and I'm not having 4 separate packs in this thing. Another problem will be the balancing cables with a 6s pack. If runtime with the 2 x 3s packs isn't at least 10 minutes ( big IF) then I'll sell this car and move on to a monster truck or something. I get bored with stuff, so keep your eyes open, this may be going bye-bye :wave:
