First week with Lipo power!

Well iv'e had my Savage xs for a week now and WoW Lipo power is awesome! I zipped tied my phone to it with a full 2S battery and got a top speed of 83 km\h. (i haven't told my wife yet) I know people go to the 3S but that's just crazy. This little truck is super tough, Iv'e ran it pretty rough at least 10 times and a few bad hits, nothing broke yet, but i have almost melted off a set of tires from road driving.

Re: First week with Lipo power!

LIPO power is da best. I started with Nitro boats 20+ years ago, things sure have changed.

I remember once my uncle saying "batteries will never be faster than Nitro"

lol

Re: First week with Lipo power!

I really was out of touch as far as batt power goes? I always thought that nitro was faster and has more play time? Im looking at Octane trucks now, but that will be in a few years, right now im plenty happy with Lipos. Gonna grab another 2s next weekend and take my truck out to the local rock crushers, i got a friend who works out there and there are some super fun areas to bash!
