1. the batteries fit only spec 2
2. they offer 33% more power
3. extended run times (with our tests)
4. the charge time is also longer about double- thats the only draw back so far.

The Spec 2 also must be taken apart and since stock pack has no plugs it must be un soldered and new pack must be installed and soldered too!

For the experienced Hobbyist. The Spec 2 is much easier to disassemble than to re-assemble :D

I can't believe the ESC didn't blow with the extra voltage
Are the cells you are using 250 mah NiMh cells?

Could you post a picture, please.

Here is a link to the picture. It is availble for purchase. I have actually put more cells in a spec 1 before with out hurting the esc.
But, the spec one is not a slap in mod. It requires lots of work.
