Concerning electronics for my Mugen MBX7R :
I was planning on using a RX-37 receiver (rated up to 6V), Savox SA 1258TG (throttle, rated up to 6v), Hitec HS 7950TH (rated up to 7.4V) and a Protec 5196 lipo (rated at 7.4V)
how am I looking? Do I need to buy anything else to get going without frying anything or having my buggy run off into the distance...
I have yet to use a lipo battery in a nitro vehicle. But based on the specs, you would probably want a 2 cell LiFe battery instead because it runs a lower 6.6v which will be less of a stress on the receiver which is only rated at 6v. If you plug a fully charged 7.4v lipo into the receiver there is a chance you'll fry it.
Overall the better choice would be to get this receiver instead. Which would make everything you have there compatible.
