runtimes

[davidib]

What kind of run time I am I looking at with the stock 6 cell 1200mah battery setup?
I'm guessing like 8 seconds.

8 to 10 minutes

I had 10 min when the car was stock. Aprox 20 min when used parallel.

Yea...usually the problem is that after like 2 minutes with a nimh the power starts to slope downward

Only if you are using low quality nimh packs. I was getting a good 10-12 min runs with the stock packs.

I'm gettin over 15 min with 2 stock packs parallel, they keep pretty decent punch thru the end, not as good as my 2s boost lipo's, but still do good for the price comparison

Im getting about 10 mins with the stock nimh battery which isnt bad. Also using my ***** 2200mah 2s pack which is giving me crazy LONG runtimes. Like 20+ mins. I was shocked seeing how my Merv BB eats that thing up in like 10 mins haha.

One more final noob question before I buy. How many runs with the stock battery can I expect before I lose power/mah. thanks

[Carnage334]

Probably alot. I dont use the stock pack very much, but know someone who abuses his stock packs(charges them fast at like 3c and runs then in series all the time). Hes got an easy 50-60 cycles and still going strong and he just got his rally.

I get around 8-10 minutes like most people. Run time is not that long, but charges fast at 2 amps in around 40 minutes.
