Status: offline 		Can you put a 7 cell in a stock RC18MT? I notice the speed controler specs say up to 8.5 volts.

Does someone make a 7 cell hump that fits the truck?

I dont want to go lipo.

Thanks

Gary

A pack like that won't work with the DP Gear Cover though...

The diameter of each cell is more than half the overall length.

Therefore, a side-by-side pack is longer and narrower than a stick pack.
