2nd time newb hoonitruck kit

[bashblastflash]

I just finished my first build in 15 years.. What 3s battery should I get ( price no issue/ for bashing). It has the SW4 esc with the castle 1410 3800kv sensored brushless motor. SR315 receiver. Thanks for helping a newb on his.

I'll just mention, with a sensored ESC and motor don't forget to plug it in A to A, B to B and C to C.
I'm sure you know this already.

You can find out what the best LiPos are at the link below. Look for one that has the best VUL (voltage under load) in your price point.

I ended up getting the Reedy 1416-C2L and a couple 3S WP batteries. I’d end by saying thanks, but since I got no clear answer from the forum, I think I’ll pat my own back on this one.

You didn't ask anything about chargers and I gave you a clear answer backed by data on batteries, which is the one question you did ask, although a lot of people might have missed the question since you didn't use the proper punctuation.

i mean @Greywolf74 linked you the exact info you asked for, instewad of just saying hey you should get battery A he gave you the tools to decide which would be best. if you read the post it will help you to learn more about the batteries we use, leading you to being able to make your own decision. its really hard for someone to say buy THIS battery.. as there are so many options and factors. what works best for him may not work the best for me, my gearing could be different or my rig heavier. theres factors at play that prevent someone from just saying . o go buy a hopper battery their the absolute best and smash every other battery.... then why would there be other companies? eveyone would clone the hopper.
discharge rates and other factors play a part.

most of the smart guys here tend to teach rather than tell in my experience on this forum.. they want you to learn as well so that we can pass it on to the next gen. once the old timers are gone who will know their lore if we dont learn it.

ps your rig looks awesome! bet its a blast, do you have any videos of you ripping the streets with it? id love to check it out. is my ASMR lol

Did you already buy that charger? I think that is the most overpriced charger I have ever seen at that mediocre power level. I don't recall you asking about chargers, but you did get a response to your LiPo question with a link to a comprehensive LiPo study showing specs and test data for a lot of different batteries.

Hey GW my bad, I did actually mean a specific battery like I said I’m new to this just gotten my kit together and I wanted to bash but I don’t have a battery so I just wanted someone to say buy this battery for this set up. I didn’t mean to ruffle any feathers.
