6 min battery

[benidormboy]

was out today with my mad bull and it only ran 4 about 6-8 mins on full power, is this normal?. i have got 3 batteries which have been charged up over the last 3 nites. wild pack 1500, powerzone 1700 and powerzone 2100. these were charged with a ripmax charger ( in-50hz ac 0.03a, out-6v-7.2v 120ma ). i have a ansmann ac 30 fast charger coming from the uk next week, will this be any better?( dont know spec ). i have read that the vapextech batteries are very good. will the 3300, 3700, 4000 or 4300 give me more run time, or is there something wrong with my charger?. i only want 20 mins a battery, dont think it is a lot to ask. can anyone help as this is all quite new to me!. p.s. will changing the wheels on my "bull" for fighter buggy ones reduce the power output!.

thats a pretty normal run time for a car like that, if its got an MSC fitted.

if you have an electronic speed control, you should be getting a lot longer run times!

Run time depends on:

the motor fitted

gear ratio

speed control

driving style

terrain

battery

charger

type of vehical

my clod buster gets around the same run times with its old MSC, but my txt-1 which has an esc fitted lasts around 3 times longer.

ordered some vapextech 4300 batteries, might get more run time !.
