I know that one has a 7.4v 3600mAh 2s Lipo Battery and the other one has a 11.1v 3600mAh 3s Lipo Battery.

Will the 11.1v battery cause the car to overheat and possibly explode?
Which one will have a longer lasting battery and which one will ride faster?
Other aspects? Which is better?

Please help thanks guys

HSP may look pretty but it's trash. Get a reputable brand. Tamiya, Kyosho, associated. That sort of thing

I couldn't agree more with this. If you're going to buy HSP you may as well throw your money into the wind.

Traxxas
Tamiya
Kyosho
HPI
Losi
Durango
Thunder Tiger
Hot Bodies
JQ
Mugen
Vaterra
Team Associated
Ofna
Serpent
Tekno
Xray


That should get you started.
