Default RE: Traxxas E-Maxx


ORIGINAL: guver

series wiring the motors halves the voltage , not doubles it. It will slow down the truck , increase the runtime, drop the power and make the motors live.
this is what i sed if you read it Properly.

12v motors in series is the SAME loadas a single 24v motor.
in other words it would take 24v to get the SAME RPM'swith themin series

Hence what i sed just use a lower cell count will have the SAME effect . like "Half the total cells"

Eg.
12 cells to 6

14 cells to 7

16 cells to 8

then if you want EVEN Longer run times
just use2 packs inparallel !


Its sooooo elementary.
