Ok, I bought a Losi SCTe used back in April, and it came with 3 batts (2s, ranging from 20c-40c and 5000-7200). They were all used mind you, but after running the truck twice with each battery, they melted the inboard terminals off, and cracked the sides of the hardcase. I went and looked at the SCTe forum, and everyone said to get a cap pack, and to run 2s 50c+ for SCT's cause of the weight/kv etc.. so I did, with GensAce 70c packs, and haven't had an issue. Thats the only reason I really asked. I know thats not a good source of testing, considering they were used, and no cap pack.. but still. haha. It does sound like 1/8 are a lot more forgiving with C rating anyway.
Also, one more question. For the 1/8 setup, I plan on using my RX8g2 and a Tekin 1900kv. Do I need 10awg for that? or will my Tekin 12awg be okay? I see that the 4s batts use 10awg.. so wasn't sure
