. That is why i got away from the electrics, because the 5-8 minutes of run time just really killed the fun for me.
You must have been doing something wrong, because we run races longer than that - and for pure ''running it until it dies'' I'd guess the time should be closer to 30 minutes.
Wasnt doing anything wrong, it was just that i was running my stampede on dirt/grass with 1800 nicd batteries and a 16t motor. No matter the batteries and charger, they just cant match the runtime of a nitro. That bothered me, but to some, its probably not as big of a deal.
