CT5 Servo issue
 

Guys me again, I have been looking at the CEN site at the video which shows testing your servos before starting the car and I realised my steering is reletively slow compared to the video footage. I have since replaced my batteries with brand new Duracel and it works fast for about 5 minutes then slow again.

When I check the remaining voltage of the batteries after 5 minutes use it reads 5.7v remaining.

Help wanted ??

The car in the video was using a 5 cell "hump" style battery pack which has more voltage. We recommend that if you want to have your cars steering quicker like you see in the video to go ahead and purchase an aftermarket pack like this.

Here is a link to a few different places that have the packs: [link]http://www.teamorion.com/products/batteries.asp#Receiver%20Packs[/link] or you can to to this link: [link]http://www.ofna.com/elec-batt.html[/link]

There are other companies that manufacture "Hump" style batteries but these are the two that I know of off hand.

Have fun!

And would these fit the CT5 seamlessly?

yes, you simply remove the AA bat holder, and plug in a FULLY CHARGED 5cell hump pack and zip it tight, plug it in, good to go.

Pretty much what Timmahh said. You may need to modify the plug a bit on the five cell pack to make it plug directly to the switch, which is an easy fix as well.

I got a hump pack off e-bay with the charger and the correct connector for 25 bucks! 1200 MAh
