Default RE: Battery Help....

The setup will draw approximately 70A at full bore. I would recommend purchasing cells that can withstand 100A continuous to have a greater safety margin if your plane and budget would allow.


Running at nearly 2000 watts, I'd recommend keeping motor cooling in mind. Drill holes in the end caps if you can. These KB motors are amp hogs and run HOT.
