You can run on 2S all day long. Power is Voltage x Current. Less Voltage and less Speed means same or less current. And too much Current is what kills the packs. So don't worry. 😘
It's also worth noting that a 5000mAh 2S is going to have exactly half the power in Watts and exactly half the energy in Watt-hours compared to a 5000mAh 4S. So assuming the motor is large enough and has ample torque and is not the limiting factor if you're trying to gear up a motor on 2S with enough load to get the same power draw as you would on 4S with low gearing/low load the 2S battery will draw a lot more amps and yes can puff the battery because it's trying do deliver more amps/power then it's maximum discharge is allowing. When my brother and I race on track just by ourselves not in a club races we use this to our advantage instead of using a 5200mAh hard pack 2S on my 1/10 2WD buggy with a 3652 3800kv motor I use a 5200mAh 3S battery which when full power is no good for the track (instant wheelies and pushes wide on power corner exit) but when I turn the thottle down to about 2S speed and power I can get 28 minutes of consecutive flat our running over 60 laps plus a few warm up laps so, over 30minusts all up. The tires are done but the motor and electrics hardly break a sweat.
I don't think I ever got to 50 mph with this truck. Now I have gotten 53 mph with a 3s Hoss with a 17 tooth pinion. No overheating either, just a few sizes up from the stock pinion.
Thank you for some 5s love! All we hear is 4s & 6s.. & I've been wondering about 5s since there's a lot free time now!! Seems like a bashers sweet spot for speed & power... good job bro!
6s is a lot for this SWB truck, it's hard to get a top speed stock. 4s is sweet spot especially for bashing offroad. 5s is happy medium, but don't know if the Redcat electronics recognize that and will hit LVC correctly without wrecking the lipo, maby someone can chime in on this.
Yes JayTee, even tho 6s was top speed 4s seemed the strongest✔️ thanks for the risk too 😎 but 6s sounded almost as fast as Nnnnneeeeeeeooooooooiuuuuuuunnnnnnggg🤣🤣
Hey JT this is David I'm new to this and I just bought my first dukonoI figured you might be able to help me out I'm trying to go faster withmaybe you could tell me what's the next step of motor I can put in it what gear I can change on it what I can put in. If you can reply to this I definitely appreciate it
Nice, I've never seen a speed test with 2,3,4,5 and 6S on the one truck in the one video!
With those tyres it seemed 5S was a sweet spot.

Yep yep 😁. But not everyone knows that so will do a video on it for any newbies put there. Thanks for watching and commenting 💛
Kimberly Sanchez sounds like an ohm's law scholar.
Definitely my kinda people!

Rick Springs I like 6s haha. The more speed the better for me😂

Redcat Kaiju is fun rig!
I so want of these badly
Quick Redcat
I justed bashed for about two hours in a puddle of mud👊✌️
Great Content
Have you ever had any problems with Redcat electronics ?? Like the Blackout or Volcano?
None
@@JayTeeRC O.K. ... TY so much
The hexfly servo
Have same truck, run it at bcss a lot :)
Cool👍🏾

🤣🤣🤣
Awesome truck for the price man......
Can the world please help me figure out which truck to buy tommorow DHK hobby Maximus or RedCat Racing 1/6 scale Shredder V2
Shredder
Now with that being said I found 2 2s lipo batteries 5200mah each with 80c each is that too much burst for the 80a ESC
@@aaronjohnson8365 naw...ur good...
@@JayTeeRC ok I was scared it would burst into flames 😂😂😂
Neither. Save your money a little longer and you can get a car that is way better and will actually hold up and not break. What is your budget?

I just bought this truck on Ebay. I hope it's worth 400! What do u think? Is it a good truck? How easy is it to get parts for it?
2.
😅
How does this truck compare to the traxxas maxx? Is the 130$ difference worth it?
The max is going to be a little bit more durable but I think you're getting more with this truck here for the price.
Yo were i cant buy this kaiju!!! Evrityng sold out.._..._.._.._
Jay would u be interested in selling the kaiju and if so how much?
Why don't they sell a 5s battery?
They do
@@JayTeeRC ok. I've never seen them. I'll search for them.
Here’s one hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-5000mah-5s-30c-lipo-pack-xt-90.html
