Arrowmax 7.6V 6200mAh low profile LiHV battery pack

Coming from Arrowmax is the new 7.6V 6200mAh LiHV low-profile battery pack. Built from high-performance 55C/110C high-voltage Lithium-Polymer cells the battery offers an increased nominal voltage of 7.6V and it can be charged up to a charge end voltage of 8.7V or 4.35V per cell. Even when used with the standard, and often mandatory 8.4V or 4.2V per cell setting, it offers a flatter discharge curve, meaning more power towards the end of the run. The pack utilises 5mm tube-type connectors and it is available now.

The drivetrain features durable front and rear differentials and the suspension’s unique shock absorber positions lowers the overall centre of gravity. The buggy comes pre-assembled, with a pre-decorated body shell and it is propelled by a Hobbywing-made 3652-series brushless motor and a 50A brushless speed controller.
