Your not going to make 20min on 2s in a 1/8 buggy. Bump it to 4s and you should have a chance with a 4s 5000mah....

Lower kv motor and 3 or 4 s. You have little chance of moving a vehicle of that weight around for 20 minutes on 2s. C rating has nothing to do with it run time.

You could also try 2 smaller sized lipo's, like two 4000's, while it'll be a little heavier, you're still going to get the runtime you want, and if you're running weights, you could remove them when adding the extra battery.

I'd go higher voltage. You can easily make 20 minutes probably with a 6s 2650 with the 810 due to its light weight. I was only burning barely over 100/mah a minute on a smaller indoor track (trackside) when I was running my 810 on 5s and a Teking t8 1400.

I have a custom Novak 550 that I had made specifically for use with 5s and 6s. I think it is 1300kv with the option 14mm rotor. I never got around to using it. Shoot me a PM if interested in it. I'll let it go for cheap.

2s works in the 810, but it really isn't cut out for longer runs imho. I found the voltage lagging near the end frustrating. I'd stick with a larger 3s pack at a minimum, but run times gets stupid long on 4s-6s with the 810.
