We decided to cut back on the capacity as it would as we were asked by some of the best 12th scale mod racers to do so as this would mean they would have to throttle drive again or use slower motors as the current speeds are out of control. There is plenty of capacity with a 4000 plus it also keeps the price lower.

Does the Novak #1715 4-cell GTB work with this battery?

So far the GTB seems to work the best. The discussion on this battery has moved to the other thread.

Can anyone direct me to this?

I was wondering if it was possible to put the voltage booster between the battery and esc. Is this even possible. I am thinking about buying the yeah racing esc and brainless brushless motor as it is cheap. However it says that it only supports 2-3 cell lipo. Is it still possible to run 1 cell lipo.

Thanks in advance
