off. You may lose control of the vehicle.
CAUTION: Do not discharge a LiPo battery below 3V per cell.
Batteries discharged to a voltage lower than the lowest approved

temperature before using the next battery pack.
RUN TIME
The largest factor in run time is the capacity of the battery pack.
A larger mAh rating increases the amount of run time experienced.
The condition of a battery pack is also an important factor in both run time
and speed. The battery connectors may become hot during driving. Batteries
will lose performance and capacity over time.
Driving the vehicle from a stop to full speed repeatedly will damage the
batteries and electronics over time. Sudden acceleration will also lead
to shorter run times.
To Improve Run Times

or dirt. Avoid using solvents or chemicals as they can actually wash dirt into
the bearings or moving parts, as well as cause damage to the electronics.
