    And how much mah does it take to get the job done (i.e. 1P or 2P)?

      Hi Doug.
      I run a 1527/1y, Swordfish 240A ESC, Entropy 8s1p 5800mah pack & a Prather s235.
      That's in the U-95 1/8 hydro.
      Nothing gets hotter than it should.
      Around 35% - 37% left in the packs at the end of a race.
      But the laps we run are shorter than you guys, so it might be tight. An s230 lightens the load a bit.
      Here's a bit of a test run.
      See the danger. THEN DO IT ANYWAY!!!
