Thanks for the replies. The car is built now and I've taken it out for it's first drive. I'll keep my 17t motor in it for now, but I need some new batteries as mine are all fairly old 1400mAh NiCd ones which I doubt would last long enough for a race. Also, my charger says it will only charge up to 1400mAh, so it makes sense for me to upgrade to Lipo batteries and get a low voltage cut-off for the ESC until I can afford to go brushless.
Regarding batteries, does it really matter what C rating and mAh I go for (apart from making sure it will deliver enough current for the ESC and motor I choose)?
