Thanks for that info. I remember on Radio Waves video that he put a 7 cell battery in his stock Kyosho when doing a speed test against his modified board. I am pretty sure he had also fitted a speed controller. So I guess in order to use the 7 cell I would need to replace the receiver and add a speed controller before I can run a 7 cell? The stock gear doesn't have a speed controller - it is just full throttle or nothing

Idon'treally want to fry the stock gear just yet because any new radio gear will probably be 3 weeks away.

Has anyone else tried running an 8.4v battery in a stock NQD?

Cheers,

Mark
