Default RE: Backdraft 8e Battery upgrade help


ORIGINAL: PejaPolo

no clue what ur trying to say. maybe if u said ill smoke it by doin that...meaning fry something lol. figured out they werent 6s but im still thinkin of gettin 2 3ss lipos not just 2 2s lipos


<span style="color: #ff0000">4s = 2 2s 7.4vlipo 4s system
</span><span style="color: #0000ff">
6s = 2 3s 11.1v lipo6s system

</span> When I got into electric rc It was hard to figure at first............. With the stock ESC and motor on the Backdraft or any 8E series run only:
<span style="color: #ff0000">4s = 2 2s 7.4vlipo </span>if you run <font color="#0000ff">6s = 2 3s 11.1v lipo </font>you will: ("let the smoke out") you will fry the ESCand maybe do damage to the motor!!!


If you want the 3s or 2of the3s 11.1 lipos that would be a 6s system........... you will need to upgrade the stock 80amp ESC.
hope this helps
