Default What runtimes are you all getting then...?
Just wondered what runtimes everyone is getting, if anyone could let me know, along with what motor/cells your using?

about 20minutes on some ftx 5000mah 7.4V 20C packs in a Losi 8B with mamba monster esc, medusa motor and rc monster motor mount.

i have some zippy-R 14.8v 4500mah 21/35C's on the way and would imagine they would give a similar run time...

I'm getting about 12 minutes driving hard. This is with Flightpower 4S 4350mAh Lipos in a Hyper 9E. Motor: Medusa Research 2000kV motor with a Castle Creations Monster Mamba.

Soon I'm looking at getting some 5S ~4500mAh Lipos to get that run time to about 15 - 16 minutes.

Managed a 15 minute nitro final using a FlightPower 4S 4500mAh 30C and a Neu 1512 2600kV motor.

hi, i got them off the french ebay site. they are a bit long for my battery trays (about 3cm too long) so i may sell them as i have to strap them to the top which is neither safe or good for low COG.
if you are interested PM me an offer (i have 2 4s packs)

EDIT: i forgot to say these zippy-r lipos are far better than the other zippy lipos and are reported to be made of enerland cells in korea...

i had a simlar prob with the 14 volt trackpower lipos at neo but found that i could turn the cels on there side and run them diagonal across the tray. this ment they still ran on the chassis line although i did have to cable tie them in lol. now got to try and find some 10k mha lipos so i can do a 30 min final :P as want to kick some nitro ass

I did a 15 min final at a border counties league last week and pulled in for a lipo change at 10 mins just in case (was grass track so didnt want to risk it). Pit team did a great job of swapping it in 23 seconds lol !!! and still managed to win by a lap
