So as yet I haven't purchased any of the electrics or conversion stuff, I have been looking at the EZ run stuff to start with, as their 150A ESC is meant to be ok.

What are your thoughts on the 1 big batt v 2smaller? I can see that two is better for racing, but for cost and ease of charging, I wondered if 1 was better for bashing.....

Cheers.
I've just had a look at some hyper 7 conversion kits, they all seem to have 1 battery tray. So in my opinion, your better off sticking with a single 4/5s lipo.

Unless you have two trays I don't really see the need, I do have a 4s lipo which I am looking to get rid of if your interested. It's the one i've used for this buggy as you've seen a few pages pack on this thread. It's slightly damaged casing so ill give ya a good price

Depends on your budget, If you don't mind waiting a while for a more expensive system then EZ run, then I would do that. But if you are in a hurry then It should do fine, just watch your temps for sure.

Yeah I've recently got a hyper, they are pretty awesome (nitro guzzler)
