Cool, this is getting funny now. Seems the proof is already there.

im sticking with 5s seems to run pretty good. the first couple passes are amaising fast then it seems to not be rediculous fast after about 4 hard passes. is that normal?

OK iam getting all head shot here if i run 2 x 3cell lipo's in series that's 22.2v right ?
so if i run 1x 11.1v 3cell @ 4000Mah and 1x 7.4v 2cell 6400mah in series that = 5 cell but what about the volts and the Mah what does that = ?

basically my motor will only take a max of 18.5v and i have 2 sets of bats

which are 2x6400Mah 20c 2 cell
and 2x4000Mah 30c 3 cell

what safe configuration can i run them in to stay inside my motors max volt input ??
my esc is not a problem

[6S HYDRO]

youll only be able to run 4000 mah with that setup, actually less cause you dont want to run that 3 cell all the way down

running 2 2s1p 4000mAh 25C now. My BJ26 seems to run faster, and longer run time as well. I'll probably stay with 4s instead going for 6s.

I believe that with this setup, you will see a lot longer life out of your equipment. I'm glad to see that some of the caution info provided is being taken to heart.

....eagle tree info.... Truthfully, I'm looking forward to this shirt idea. What color is it going to be? Screenprinted or airbrushed? LMAO! For my 2 cents, I vote for pink with duck tape and a sharpie marker!

How about cutting the series link out of the esc leads and getting 2x 5s 5000mah packs hooked in parrallel to give 10000mah 18.5v? Or for weight conscious 2x 5s 2500mah packs for 18.5v 5000mah.

I tried last year to run 6s lipos it will run for awhile until it blows up!! mine did it nuked the motor, i went back to 4s and I am very happy. I run consistantly at 40 mph and trimed out for speed I have hit 44mph acording to my GPS. cheers
