Thanks for showing us the light.
I might get some 3D of my designs to show you the light. What you missed is with the higher voltage and lower amp consumption, you don't need the expensive packs. Most of you guys that race must follow rules that set you back to the 6 cells or 2S lipos and you can't seem to understand anything else. I can't understand why higher voltage isn't allowed.
