    Gosh dangit Kevin, I love you for this video man! I was literally just about to hook up my lipo's on a fresh wiring job. Something told me to double double triple check and there you are to save the day sir! Thank you for making a simple video that I could understand.

    love the video on how to run dual batteries! I recently upgraded my lipos from 20c up to 100c and now running the 6s 100c pack was getting the connectors and wires so hot that the connectors would actually fuse together and it melts the solder on the connectors so a friend suggested i run two 3s packs instead of one 6s pack and I been pondering how to wire them and now I know. thank-you from

    when you place multiple batteries for an r/c car, does the battery C rating has to match? example if I used a 2S lipo 25C plus a 4s lipo 50C rating to have 6S lipo is that ok?
    or would both batteries have to have 50 c rating?

      Eventually will, you can run a higher voltage for a little while but that's about it. notice he does checked the engine temperature Annette 58 Celsius that was pretty cool for running 6s but I'm not sure if that truck he has run 6s normally., but I'm not exactly sure how all that works. I just know that if it's built to handle only 11 volts.and forcing more volts to something other than its capacity and tends to fry things. I would like to run 2 four s's in my e Revo 2.0 just to see what would happen but I'm afraid to blow a motor or ECS because of cost to replace LOL so I'm cool right now with the S3. Dual setup.
