Tri Cell?

Post by leftcoastminis »

I'm sure I saw a thread about doing a tri cell conversion on my Monster truck but I cant find it.. did a search but no luck checked out some of the other sites as well. I understand the basics of doing it, but I cant quite figure out how to wire it so the batteries work togehter for more power, rather than longer run times... in series or parallel? will I need to modify the charger too then?

the tutorial walks you through it, tells you what bits you'll need etc.

not that hard, just very tiny.

and well worth the effort :-o

but yeah I guess the risk is disabling your ZZ :???:
