I've got a Feigao 540 8S (4436kv) and a 100amp supersimple ESC from a boat, and can run it on two 2200mah 20C lipo's on parallel. Would this setup work good with the dark impact? I'm used to boats, so im not sure what i should run as far as gearing. Would this run ok with the stock gearing? Not looking for crazy speeds, maybe around 30mpg. Just want to run a cool setup, for light bashing and just messing around.
HI!... You won't be able to run twin lipo's on the DI. There's no room in the battery compartment. Tamiya designed the DI battery compartment for a traditional NiMh battery. I run a ZIPPY 7.4 volt 5800mAh and a 6000KV brushless motor with a EZ-RUN 60 amp ESC. I run 63KPH for top speed. It runs really cold. Has tons of power. I get about 35-40 minutes of run time.
