Lipo O.K.?
 

I just got a Peak Racing 4800mah lipo and I want to use it on my AE B4.
I am going to be using the mamba max 7700kv system which can pull a lot of amps.
Would it be ok if I use the Lipo to power the car?
The battery is rated at 72 amps continuous and 144 amps burst.
I really don't want to ruin the pack.

Should be fine...I ran a Orion 4800 (same as yours) with a 3.5 in a offroad 4wd..

I'm sure others will say different, but the C rating is "overrated" in terms of power in my opinion. This is especially true for good quality packs like Peak & Orion.

Try it for a short run and check temps. If that lipo is not up to running that copmbo, it will be hot. If its not getting hot, you're good.

series lipo?
 

ok... similarish qn.

iv just recently gone from 1:18th to 1:10th and iv noticed that compared to micros/minis, the bigger electronics are a real kick in the pills for your wallet. im used to forking out $20 on ebay for an ok lipo but for 10ths its anything over 100. So... i was wondering. i have in the past bought 1500mah 20c 11.1v lipos for my 18ths and been happy with there performance and price. iv been thinking of wiring up 4 of these in series to make them 6000mah and 80c for my 10th. the dimensions of 4 packs together would fit perfectly. however i hav no experience wiring lipos in series and i know that precautions should be taken. should i charge the individual packs separately and then wire them in series on each charge? or somehow rewire the ballance wires and charge it like a single pack on 4c? cheers
