NOFX Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Don't Worry about the plastic shocks.. It's the aluminium one that gives up. I replaced mine with a shock off the mlst2. This is a far superior truck to that price of poo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewbacca Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 That Trackstar 60a is 3s max fella. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross9999992 Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Yeah it seems they will handle 4s, I guess near 2000kv for that. I'm gonna stick with 2s and near 4000kv personally. My tenbol merv is good for 45 minutes to an hour on parallel 1800mah/2200mah 2s with a trackstar 3800kv or summat so hoping for similar. I guess maybe 20 minutes running 1600mah~ 4s.

sunny Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Yup series = double voltage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross9999992 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 (edited) To be clearer on that series adds voltage, so you can run a 2s and a 3s together for 5s (need same capacity) Whereas parallel adds mah - 5000mah 2s 40c + 5000mah 2s 40c = 10000mah 2s 40c 5000mah 2s 40c + 2000mah 2s 20c = 7000mah 2s 20c (needs same voltage). So what I'm saying is that it's additive rather than multiplicative. Edited April 5, 2017 by Ross9999992 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggy8 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 cheers guys, never used parallel only series so didnt really know much about parallel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
