Jshwaa you must have missed what I said above this 2x8 stack is not for performance it・s primarily to be seen under the hood scoop, as a matter of fact I・ve written several articles on why 4 plus stacks are a waste. Maybe I just didn・t say it very well even though I mentioned it in three different places. They are horribly inefficient it・s not a lack of current handling ability although it・s definitely not anywhere near 56 amps for a 2x8 (the 7 amp FET H-bridge myth seems to be caused by not reading the fine print on a data sheet), power loss is also not the problem either, it・s just that the input capacitance becomes so great that they never fully open up acting something like a throttle limiter, a 2x4 stack will actually allow the motor to draw more current from the batteries than the 2x8, try it, and yes the batteries become the current limiting factor not the ESC.
Also you might have noticed that keeping a low center of gravity is a primary consideration for all of my Xmod creations. I don・t like cars that just go fast in a strait line and then roll when you try to turn, which is why I don・t like to stack batteries on top of each other the Xmod has a high enough center of gravity it doesn・t need any more help. If you are wondering why my cells don・t overheat like yours do it・s simple; I balance the motor I・m running and my gear ratio with the cells I・m using and the type of driving I・m planning on. Yes I could put a lower turn motor and/or lower gearing in the car and overheat the batteries but I・m simply aware of my batteries limits and stay within them.
I・m sorry but trying to tell me about lithium-ions and batteries in general seems a little insulting unless there is someone else using name of Jshwaa in the forums. I know you have seen me put four 10430 size lithium-ions in a MR02 using a parallel series combo pack without having to mod the car, I even mentioned parallel cells above so why the reference or were you just trying to get people to go and see your post at xmodrc. If I misunderstood your intent I apologize but I just don・t see your point. Did you misunderstand the section where I said that it's the regulator that limits the amount of voltage the front deck circuit board can use?
