Default Home Made Upgrades

home made upgrades 5 or 6 cell upgrade will be fairly easy and does alot for your acceleration and drift also inside of your car theres a heatsink for your fets and you can cut some off of that and reduce weight also shave down the inside of your body and remove front plate for better drift seal rear diff open and put a little bit of silicone sealant in it DO NOT OIL UNLESS ONLY USED IN A WELL KEPT HOUSE oil collects dust and dirt increasing friction if you buy a car from walgreens you can use fets out of that just to make it cheaper but there a little difficult 2 remove.

5Cell and 6Cell is BAd for drift. You want a light low grip car for drift. Liths maybe. 5Cell or 6Cell no.

Uhhhhh, no. The longest drifts I ever pulled were with 6 cells. More power=less traction, making more sliding fun.

You do not want to mix the batteries. If can go more than two lithium cells but you will need a V1 board or Josh's H Bridge. MNM is currently working on a new board to allow more amps to be drawn through the car safely.

Josh's H-bridge has no built-in reg, but I'd bet he'd make one for it if you asked.

about the whole more power less traction thing isnt quite true, as soon as your tires are slipping your traction is at zero. al though more power makes you lose traction faster, cuase its a more power to weight ratio

Well, not quite. If you're doing a burnout and moving, you're getting a little traction. Try to get the weight as far back as possible for traction and weight transfer.
