I don't have a race runner,but i've had 3 hrs from my Li-Fe pack in the losi and it was still fine. Running 2 Savox jumbo servo's.
I use spekky radio gear.
I'm in MK too,where do you run,or do you plan to race?

i only use these type of high capacity batteries

you will need the hump pack to fit into the radio box

as for servos i have 12 of these in some of my models

all with the red alloy control arms

i would not use any other type in my MCD's:

as the pretty red case matches the red plasic joints

on the MCD :lol::lol::lol:

Futaba is a better bet, what budget do you have to get one..

The 3PL is under £100 and the 4PL is approx £225

I'm using a Spekky DX3.0 with DuraLaughter Procells - haven't switched to rechargeables yet.
SR300 receivers and not having any problems.
SuperBee remote killswitch.
VapexTech 4.2Ah LiFe batteries.
Twin Rhinos on the steering.
Savox 1256TG (20Kg.cm torque) on the throttle / rear tuning cable brakes.
Savox 1230SG (32Kg.cm torque) on the front tuning cable brakes.

Running 4PK with the high voltage rx and a lipo from rapid racing 8.4v when charged, using Savox 1268 X 4 steering and throttle brakes with good results but I do charge it as soon as the evo comes in for a rest lol
If I wasn't using twin Savox on steering then I would go for the new multiplex Rino pro, looks proper nice....

Does the rx lipo you use fit in the rx box? Also what high voltage Rx r u using? I see that the rx that comes with futaba 4pl can handle up to 7.4v as anyone tried to plug a lipo fully charged in to it? In my helicopters I use futaba bls451 servos they are rated 6v but run them on 8v so I guess there is tolerance

Many thanks

I currently use a KO EX10 Eurus with spekky module,but i'm on the lookout for a Helios to use instead,don't like using a £300 TX in a field lol
