Battery suggestions for Velineon brushless
Got the Traxxas 3500R Velineon vxl-3 Brushless power system to install in my Rustler. Any suggestions for batteries to use? It still has stock wheels, tires, and transmission. Help on any, or all of those things would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Not yet RustyUs. I was told to stick with 2S Lipos as 3S would be crazy fast, and probably just good for speed runs. Would you agree? I want to go fast, but keep the motor temp down. What pinion/spur gearing would you suggest? Thank you for you help.

Update on my original post: I've bought anaconda tires with 2.8" wheels. Also upgraded transmission to VXL, and bought ultra shocks. Installed a metal geared steering servo, and aluminum wheel hexes. Hopefully I've strengthened most of the weak spots.
