## Questions & Answers

**Q: where can i buy a second battery for this?**
A: I bought the second battery at Amazon.

**Q: how fast does it go?**
A: I know it zips buy us pretty fast when we have it in a parking lot. As a guess I would say 20-25 mph. Hope that helps you out. Mikey B.

**Q: Can the 7.2v 3000mAh NiMH Battery be replaced with a stronger 7.4v 5000mAh NiMH Battery? If so, how?**
A: You can so use LIPO batteries with this ESC , you just have to set your ESC to LIPO from the stock NiMh configuration!! When running LIPO keep an eye on the temperatures of the motor and ESC every 10mins or so , to be safe allow you cool after every 10mins of run time to assure there’s no overheating… I suggest upgrading to Brushless motor and ESC to run LIPO full time but the STOCK ESC will configure to LIPO (2s) only anything higher than 2s be sure to upgrade components to Brushless

**Q: What kind of battery does it have lipo or nimh**
A: 7.2v 3000mAh NiMH Battery
