New to Electric need advice

[Jer_ry]

I just purchased a used tc3 that is stock and have a few question on typical usage. First off i was looking into buying an additional battery what voltage should I be looking for? Also can you run 2 or 3 batteries back to back or do you have to let the engine cool off first? I'm also needing a charger what would ya'll recommend? Nothing to crazy just a simple one. Last what is the usual run time one can expect? Thanks!

You will need to run a 6 cell pack. 7.2 volts.
Run times on a battery will be effected by many things such as the motor you are running, the battery mah, and your driving style. If I were to take a guess, I would average your runtime to be from 5-10 minutes. If you go to a high capacity battery over 4200mah with a stock motor you may get up to 15 minutes. If your not racing, go for a high capacity "SPORT" Pack

Its best to let the motor cool off before running. This will take 5-10 minutes. Usually the time it will take to change the battery out and to check the care over.

As for a charger, what is your budget?

I was hoping not to go over $70 if possible
