Batteries for Traxxas M41
Hello everyone! New to this RC boating thing. I just purchased a Traxxas M41 and looking to buy some batteries for it. Which batteries would make the boat go the fastest? I've seen some youtube videos and they're saying 3s, 4s and 6s but there are so many 3s, 4s and 6s batteries out there. Which one would you recommend? Thank you in advance for the help.

I have the same boat and have a couple runs on a new set of ovonic 8000mah 3s battery’s. There the Just as heavy as lectron pro 5500nah “probably not a good thing” and the same size. I had a long run time and so far haven’t had any go speed cut out. They were cheep. Lol
I think from what read. You need as much capacity and as large of a C rating as you can find.
c / discharge rating is multiplied by mah capacity. So a 5000mah 50c battery has the same discharge as a 10000mah 25c.
On a boat with a heavily loaded motor you want 50c or better I’d think unless you capacity gets up to 16000mah. And don’t think that would fit. Lol .
