I haven't bought a flat pack, but I do have a hump pack that I've been using for quite a while in other trucks.

scratch the max amps idea.

my max amps battery pack ended my B main race early yesterday.


it just wont hold a charge

Ofna & Orion (I have Orion) both make 5-cell 6V 1600mah flat packs which are exactly the same size as stock but 500mah more in juice. If you dont mind making some minor modding, you can fit a 2600mah hump pack designed for the T-maxx. Hope this helps

I use onlybatterypacks.com. Get a sub c size and it will drop right in.

I'm using the Ofna pack in another project and it works great.

I just finished a bracket that fits over the front shocks. Now I could upgrade to a T-maxx pack w/ higher mah. The 1600mah with digital servos works great.

A 6 cell Sub C pack will drop right into a Revo?
I may be wrong but i dont think so.

Do you mean 2/3 A?

I am sure only a 4-cell 4.8V or 5-cell 6V packs can be used in the Revo. Each cell delivers 1.2V so a 6-cell @ 7.2V could potentially fry your receiver/servos.

The Revos usually use a 5-cell 2/3 AA pack for the RX. If you use an after-market radio, they usually have regulator to keep the voltage going out to the servos at 6 volts.
