Link doesn't work it takes me to the main page of youtube......

And I know what you mean, I'm new to electric rc's and I've been running nimhs for the past few weeks... I've had lipo's but its got the bullet connector ends on them, so I had to wait for my deans ends to come in so I could solder those on... I literally just got done redoing the ends on my lipo and I must say the power increase is amazing...

you probably know it, but you dont need a lvc to run lipo, just get a 3$ lva on ebay.
worked fine on my evx-2 e-maxx.
