3s lipo choice

[lentner3]

Can anyone recommend me a 3s lipo that will fit the m03 or dt01 chassis? the length isn't too much of an issue as I can fabricate some battery holders as long as i can slide it in. Too small is also not an issue as i'll find something to pad it out with. Ideally hard-case and ideally from hobbyking cheap as poss. Equally if there is a 2s of similar size. I purchase a few options but they don't quite fit and are now in other cars.

I had trouble finding a 6 cell NiCad size , Hard case 3s Lipo.

Managed to find the one below by Orion which is close but I still had to cut a bit of the DF03 chassis.

I don't have any experience of the DT01 so will have to measure up.

Wow, are you sure you want to use 3s with the DT-01 or M-03?

I'm not talking about the sturdyness of chassis and gears (they might both withstand such abuse with ease), but I can't imagine them being controllable on 11.1 Volts.

I have no idea if there are ANY stickpack-shaped 3s LiPo packs - my guess is there aren't.

3s in the DF03 is a handful off road,too much throttle and its end over end.On road its still a handful,just less expensive on parts!

In a DT01 my money is on you not even getting close to full power before its tumbling.Dont get me wrong,its fun having stupid amounts of power.
