![]() ![]() Like the Nimh battery packs….give a 5 minute break for every 10 minute run. Get at least a 20C rated type to prevent overloading the battery packs. Make sure that they will fit before buying….there are so many different choices on the market. To take advantage of the Lipo’s lower weight, many people find 3S 11.4V packs that fit the mini E-Revo and run them in parallel. I recommend a 5 minute break for every 10 minute run. Be careful running this type configuration, and give some time for everything to cool down. Speed does not come without compromise the ESC and the motor will get very hot……so may the battery packs if they are not the better high discharge type Nimh. The brushless versions can run upwards of 50 mph in this configuration. ![]() Traxxas does not warn against using two 6 cell NiMh packs in series….so that is a common configuration that speed hungry people run in their mini E-Revos. Traxxas warns that two 7.4V 2S Lipos should not be series connected as the voltage with be too high, and cause the Traxxas ESC to possibly overload. Another choice is to simply run one battery pack….though due to the design of the chassis, many people feel that their RC car will run lop sided due to uneven weight distribution. Whatever the choice, we must make sure that the two batteries are the same brand, type, and capacity. Parallel connected batteries add MAH (capacity) for more run time while series connected battery packs add voltage for more power and speed. So the mini E-Revo from Traxxas is an interesting chassis in that it can accept two batteries and run them either in parallel or series. So what is the best way to power these mini machines? Do we use a NiMh battery, LiPo, and what about parallel and series systems? We will break this question down for our readers and give some answers! Traxxas Power Cell 11.1V 1400mAh 25C LiPo 3S Battery with iD high-current connector and integrated balance plug for 1/16 VXL vehiclesĭimensions: 3.5 x 0.83 x 1.Ok, we all know the most popular mini RC out on the market is the Traxxas mini E-Revo and its chassis sharing cousins: The Rally, Slash and mini Summit. 16AWG multi strand wire is soldered directly to the LiPo cells eliminating increased resistance from bullet connectors and accidental reversed polarity connections.Engineered specifically to fit Traxxas 1/16 VXL models. ![]() Semi rigid construction does not require a hard case and eliminates wire harness connectors that can loosen and fail.Covered under Traxxas' Lifetime Battery Exchange Program. The packs semi-rigid construction results in a firm, rugged, and compact pack that does not require a hard case, and the center-wire configuration assures a pinch-free fit in Traxxas vehicles. The cells are hard-wired with 12-gauge Maxx Cable, eliminating the resistance and power-loss associated with plug-in wires. Premium LiPo cells developed specifically for Traxxas feature oversized discharge tabs for maximum efficiency. Power Cell LiPo packs are engineered to give the punch and on-demand power to reach the top speeds Traxxas models are built to achieve. This Traxxas 2823X battery is ideal for the 1/16 E-Revo VXL, Summit VXL, Slash 4x4 VXL, Rally VXL, and Mustang VXL Brushless vehicles. This is the Traxxas Power Cell 11.1V 1400mAh 25C 3S LiPo Battery with iD Connector for use with Traxxas 1/16 VXL Brushless Vehicles. ![]()
