I just bought my first RC, a Senton 4x4 Mega Brushed. And I have a few questions that I haven't really been able to find an answer for searching.
1. I've taken it out a few times now and got a blinking light after running hard for under 10 minutes. The manual says maybe overheat? But it's been a cool day in the Canadian North, so only 15 Celsius outside (60 f). Is this normal? Both with the 2400 mah battery that came with it and a 5000 mah battery I bought after (Both Nimh). Both cut out while running with flashing light.
2. Should I get a Lipo 2S battery? I saw one video that showed it actually slower with the 7.4v lipo vs the 8.4v nihh battery. I saw one post that a 3s would fry it with stock everything else in it.
3. And a follow up to above, can the included wall slow charger charge a lipo battery?
