so over the summer break i finally took the plunge and went the Li-Po upgrade.
not wanting to spend 60+ USD on polyquests, i went the low budged chinese knock off brand Li-Pos seen here.
I know the dimensions aren’t exactly right, but for $40 bucks delivered i was willing to give it a shot.

when they arrived i found they didn’t exactly sit too well in the battery holders but with some imagination it actually worked out ok… lol it looks like it has wings! it all fits pretty neatly under the body as can be seen, and the body actually holds the Li-Pos in place pretty well. haven’t fallen out on me yet!

the only thing really holding me back atm is the spider. it really doesn’t seem to be up to the challenge. was running fine on nimh but just giving it a little squirt on the floorboards with the Li-Po setup and they are quite warm. i’m trying to order in some more efficient MOSFETS but am so far unsuccessful.
i don’t suppose anyone wants to part with a nelly do they?[ATTACH]269[/ATTACH]
