Tri-Cell Question

[al9spike]

How would you Tri-Cell any viechle with the dual cells wrapped in shrink rap? Would you unpeel the shrink wrap and do it like a normal tri-cell?

For a cleaner look, peal the shrink wrap on all, wire 3rd batt series, I'd probably glue into a triangle pack or a flat pack.

If you can get by with hiding one of the batteries away from the others, leave 2 together and just put the other one where ever you want.

And ofcourse, BEWARE that your charger will have to have more voltage than the car. (3 cell car, 4 cell tx)

I placed another battery on top of the pcb. I unsoldered the positive wire from the battery pack to the pcb. Solder that to the - of the third battery and the + of the third battery back to the pcb. It fits easily under the cab of a body.

As did I :

So you can unpeel the shrink wrap and just solder like a Tr-=Cell?

Dude, pay attention.


We're telling you that you don't have to at all if you don't want to.

Just un/re-solder THE WIRES.

There is no need to take apart the stock battery in this modification. I don't know why you think there is!

Well, wtf?! Sorry, but...

Like I can't get a thing, this is my first extra cell mod...

So sorry...

I try to keep the cells as low as possible to make the truck more stable when crawling. If you add a cell to the dual pack, just leave the red wire where it is and solder the black to the positive end of the third cell. Then solder a wire from the negative end to the negative charge pad. Simple as that.....

here's some examples. Mine are a little different, but you get the idea

Thanks, that helped alot. Is that the articulation mod from BitPimps?
