those stock 1700 batteries are crap. Get a couple 3000 batteries are they should handle everything.

I am upgrading a full metal late Tiger for a friend, and first improvement is changing the batteries. The stock 1700 mAh ones cannot supply enough current to the motors even when fully charged. Just swap them for better ones and you will see the speed improvement immediately, without any further modification.
