Higher C should equate to less IR or internal resistance and thus better performance. I'm just glad that I'm happy with the overall performance of what I'm using. I'm not an electrical or lipo battery expert by any stretch. Just not sure you'll need top dollar packs to truly enjoy your rig. On that note, I went to single pack, single EC5 connector off ESC to eliminate extra connector, for simplicity, easy charging, and less potential resistance via the connectors themselves. More connectors does equate to greater potential resistance as does longer wires. You'll find what works for you, and when you get bored...Etc. you'll likely change things around, upgrade stuff, tweak things to your liking. That's part of what makes this such a cool and interesting, and sometimes expensive hobby.
Hi Rich,
I couldn't agree more! I'm a sucker for speed and metrics.
But the only real RC I've ever driven (borrowed from a friend) is a 1/10 ERevo Brushless with NiMh. Definitely enjoyed the experience, broke a few parts, had to wrench on it, and it was fun. I'm not really impressed with the brand, so Arrma is in my sights because of the quality builds and the overall cool factor that they bring to the table.
So in regards to batteries, I've been learning about charging, etc. So with the EC5, you don't need balance boards? Just plug in your Lipo (once) to the charger and set your volts, and go? What connector does the Kraton have stock?
