Re: easy 5th and 6th cell upgrade for evo xmods

haha good find!... just did it. If you dont have any dean plugs take a old xmod ep and a old xmod motor and take the clips off :wink: . Also if you plan on useing a xmod battery hold thats has been on ur xmod make sure you put put the black in the negitive and red on positive because they are reversed from the picture. this mod works really well :)

would a 6 cell benefit a truck in any way? will it make it easier to climb? i have 1000mah duracell batteries, will i destroy any of the curcuits if i make a 6 cell?

nice tutorial but when i insall a six cell my battery were drained quickly in 5min and the batteries r hot i burned my self. what should i do??????? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

the batteries shouldnt get that hot, there might be something wrong with your pcb. also, if youre using alkalines, they have no runtime on high drain electronics like these. if youre using nimh rechargables and still having the problem, check your pcb, like i said, something might be screwed up

Re: easy 5th and 6th cell upgrade for evo xmods

Hey, thuganometrey, quit hatin' on the guy, he didnt make you try the tut, you decided to do it yourself, and apperently you didn't do it right. It's not his fault you screwed it up, so stop blaming people for your mistakes.

Verticalslik, that's a very deatiled tut, I don't think I'll be trying it in the near future, maybe sometime, but good job on it! :D

Re: easy 5th and 6th cell upgrade for evo xmods

:D This is a very detail tutorial - i was affraid to do the upgrade on my car just because i thought i was a lot of hassle - but now i'll definately do one of my evo car -it's gonna be a sleeper! BTW, one question to ask you guys - if i put neo magnets in a stage 2 motor and i do the 6 cell ugrade - is that safe or should i just leave the motor as is??? :?

Then no, you don't need a FET upgrade. If you ever do buy an aftermarket motor though, they usually tell you if it requireds a fet stack. Most people do 2x2 stacks.

Re: easy 5th and 6th cell upgrade for evo xmods

nope, fets are required for a hot motor drawing to many amps for the stock fets to handle. What motor are you currently useing? It'll draw more amps if you increase the voltage but not by much so it may require upgraded fets just not likly most of the time.

Re: easy 5th and 6th cell upgrade for evo xmods

That is one good tutorial indeed. It looks very clean and you don't have to do anything really complicated. It's much easier than the Gen 1 6 cell upgrade IMO. Although Deans Plugs do work, I decided to use 2 9V connectors and it workds AWESOME!
