If you want bigger lipos to have more run time, one option you have is take the money you would spend on that chassis and get a couple more sets of nanotech lipos from Hobby King. Lipos that have the right dimensions to fit the stock chassis. Right now, the best chassis you can run on this truck is the stock one. Bigger lipos are heavier, the E-Revo was designed to run with lipos that fit in the battery compartments. The E-Revo is perfectly happy running around the ten pound mark, once you start running bigger, heavier lipos, your truck will weigh up to 1.5 pounds more and you'll start breaking stuff more often. It's your call.

I've been here since 2002. I like to drop in the MT forums once in a while and read about members starting flame wars about their truck being better than this other truck. By the way, my ERBE is better than any truck in here

i purposefully stayed away from the ERBE for the longest time because i thought i couldn't get any pack to fit it.
Not only do 99% of all the packs i know of fit, the ERBE now comes with some hardware to expand the battery bays.
all you need to do is add the spacers in front of the doors and it gives you another quarter inch or so to use.
all my polyquest, turnigy, flightmax, blue lipo, and hyperion 2 and 3S 25-30C packs fit with no problems at all.
i'm not sure i'd trust the kershaw designs chassis. someone from the traxxas message boards got one and ended up bending it after very little bashing.

How much more could you need?
LOL.... I run two 4500mAh 35c Zippy packs and my truck is crazy fast and runs long enough that its never been an issue. I never tried 6s yet. But I assume it would be hard on the truck. HobbyKing has 5800mAh lipos for $35! Thats a decent amount of capacity for such a low cost.
And for his products... I have a pinion thats holding up and the only other thing Ive ever bought was a "Revolver" brushless motor which is a cheap chinese brushless motor. But its fast! But what 2370kv 3674 on 4s wouldnt be.
