Li Po...So many options, Please Help!
Buying a stampede vxl 4x4 and I’m considering a few different 2s batteries and chargers. I want to get the maximum run time and power without damaging the internals. I’ve been looking at the Gen Ace 5000 mah 50C, the traxxas 7600 mah 25C, and a few others. Also looking at the traxxas iD smart chargers and the Tenergy TB6-B charger. With so many choices for each I really need some input from an experienced hobbyist. Thanks for any advice!

My nephew gets about a half hour with his Stampede 4x4 with Gens ace 5000mah 50C 2S batteries, they have great punch and always take 5000+ mah charge. You will not be disappointed with Gens Ace batteries. Hope they stay in stock.

I run the same gensace lipos in my 4x4 'pede, they are a good choice. If you hammer the throttle a lot, your drive shafts (especially rears) will probably break. If you do break them, I recommend upgrading to Tekno M6's or MIP X duty drive shafts. I run the tekno's and really like them. For the charger, the Tenergy seems like a pretty good choice, but I would also check out the HITEC RDX1.
