Longer run times

[chunk1]

What's the best battery for the servo's to last longer when bashing ???

 

[Guest]

Anything 4000mah or higher is good.

Will this fry the stock servos

Do any of they come with the right connector? Any recommendations?

The Venom 1506 is what I have($30ebay) It comes with the correct connectors on it. It is a 6 volt, 5000 mah, NiMH. It will not fry the servos.

Thx for the info

 

[Guest]

I always replace the switch or the plug. I'm not a fan of the JST plugs.

I have a 3300mah niMH that is 7.2 volts is that to high for volts

 

[Guest]

The stock servos are rated at 6 volts. It might be too high for them.

Will any lipo work

A 2s has a volt range from 7 to over 8 volts. You servos need to be rated for at least 7v to run a 2s lipo. It is also better to have a pack that fits in the battery box.

If it fits it will work good. I'm not sure off the top of my head what the dimensions of the MT box is. If you have the dual servos you have the smaller box.

The Hitecs do fine on a 2s lipo.

Well I forgot to say that if I went with this battery I was gonna use only one servo and get the bigger electronics box I have read a few times that with the lipo one servo is enough on the MT with the big tires or is this wrong?

 

[Guest]

A lot of guys run a single servo with the MT tires and have no issues. The factory servos are not that strong so 2 are used.

If you run the single servo box, these will fit. http://www.killerrc.com/product/7200mah-7-4v-rx-lipo-battery/ or http://www.killerrc.com/product/6000mah-7-4v-rx-lipo-battery/

RCDAD, just posted a question about aftermarket servos for my MT on another thread in the electronics section. I came across this thread and saw what you said about ppl going with only one steering servo on the BIG MT tires. So it's true that a good servo like a Hitec can handle the big tires of the MT just fine? Thanks

 

[claude bigelow]

Just got that same advice from RCdad. Will be using one hitec 5765.

 

[Guest]

Yes you can, if you run a better servo, you can get away with a single unit.

Ok, that's cool....thanks guys. So the Hitec 5765 is the one to go with? Also, where do I need to look for a bigger batt./rx box and what about other items/parts needed to complete a single servo setup? Thanks
