Hump pack battery receiver

[kfcaddict]

Just currently building and putting together my ZX-5. Can somebody let me know if there are any specific hump pack recievers that should be bought to fit in the ZX-5 to replace the battery receiver box? Are they all the same size? Thanks.

Seriously, I have no idea what you mean here. You seem to be talking Nitro about an Electric car. "Hump packs" and "receiver boxes" just aren't used in electric cars any more, not since the 80s.

Your speed controller should power the receiver like sosidge says, there is usually no reason to need any sort of receiver pack at all.

Right ok, sorry for being so new (At least Im learning). I thought you could replace one of these:


With one of these:


So they are slightly more compact allowing more space for motor etc

They are not required Full Stop.

Main six cell battery pack, runs motor, speed control, reciever and servo
(extra wire between speed control (esc) and servo if servo has fet lead).

Same as every other 10th electric, tight to fit in but instructions should be with your speed control.

Right I see, thanks. So what are these actually used in and what for? Nitro?
