Hey everyone,
First post here
I'm about to pull the trigger on an Outcast but I can't figure out which lipos will fit the dimensions of the truck. I'm looking for good budget lipos like the SMCs. All I find is ~37mm in height which comes to 74mm total and the truck accomodates 70mm maximum. To get a smaller height I need to resort to ~4000mAH batteries. I was aiming at dual 3S 7200mAH for great runtime.
Thoughts? This is my second RC vehicule. First one was an e-revo brushless that I sold a couple years ago.
/edit : I'm also looking for a charger. I looked at the lipo charger calculators out there and I get "Charger Power Required: 181.44 Watts". But most chargers I've seen are around 60W-100W range. I'm probably not understanding all this correctly.
Number of Cells in Series(?): 3 Cells (3S)
Battery Type (?): LiPo
Capacity (?): 7200 mAh
Desired "C" Charge Rate (?): 1C
Number of Packs in Parallel (?): 2 Batteries
Thanks a lot!
