Default Max juice a redcat brushless can handle????

Please forgive my ignorance here.

Does anyone know what is the max power a redcat brushless system can handle safely?
I am switching to lipo and dont know what to buy. I ran it with a 7.4V 5000mah 2 cell and it is great but I am the type who loves overkill!

What is the most I can I do with the redcat brushless system?
7.4V, 11.1V, etc...
5000mah, 8000mah, etc...

Thanks.

Well, I ran 12 cell NICD's and it worked fine. However, I tried 12 cell propels in SxS and it went into a cuttoff protection. Not sure if 3s LiPo would work or not.

8.4v is the max we recommend.
