Receiver voltage and receivers
 

I have a brushless mini T with an 8000kv Mamba and Mamba 25 esc, can anyone tell me if a 3 cell lipo (11.1 volts) will do any damage to my ESC or RS310 receiver ???? I figured 11.1 vts is quite a bit higher that the 7.2 it currently uses.

Thanks !!

The Mamba 25 will take up to 12 cell NiMh or 3 cell Li-po

I am not sure with the receiver, That can always be disabled and a seperate 7.4v li-po pack be used to power that ie 850MiAh

not sure about the speedy but you can get a voltage regulator for the esc. designed for lipo's to drop voltage to 6volts.

you can get these from tower hobbies for about US$20.00

dude if you need a voltage regulator i have one for sale, it is the VXR Model. very good, and small. PM me

the mamba esc's use a bec... battery eliminator circuit. this means you don't need to run a seperate receiver battery pack because the ESC lowers the voltage from 11.1, 7.4 or 7.2 to the receiver to 4.8 and 6v.

Thanks guys it works great !!! The little sucker really gets up and go !! Now that I have had that fun and satisfied my curiosity does anyone want a mini-T with a brushless outfit ????? haha
