Obviously give it a go, as experimenting is good, but I do think you'll be a bit disappointed.

I did say that the gearing stays the same but due to the increase in voltage this will give me a higher top speed (all in theory of course). So as I am dropping 700kv I will also be drawing less current than I was using the 2250mah and should be drawing less current as I am upping the voltage as well. As I said we shall see what happens when it arrives. Maybe when they make higher capacity cells which are not silly amounts of money then we can all stick to a decent 4s setup. I am initially going to test with 3 x 5200mah 2s Vampire racing packs and 3 x 5000mah 2s Demon (now non brca legal) packs. If this is good then I will look at the highest capacity 6s packs available which at the moment seem like the Hyperion G3 VX 6500mah pack once they have been announced and if they fit the battery tray
