Yes but only 2s batteries, and you need to adjust the xl5 esc to low voltage detection by turning on then hold button for ten seconds and it will beep and light is green.red light is for nimh, green is for 2s lipo

Yes you can. But, I would recommend the NiMH battery. When I went to the hobby shop to check on the replacement I found similar models with issues when using a LIPO. The culprit was the burning out of the engine.

Not unless you are an electrician and know how to wire a battery pack big enough to run it li j ely a deep cycle truck or marine battery. Since you asked I will assume you are not an electrician. So no.

You need a good battery charger. I also purchased two 11.1 V LiPo batteries. You may want to have your son operate the truck with the 7 cell batteries before running with the larger 11.1 LiPo batteries which will make it much faster. I live out in the Texas Hill country and have a front yard 200 ft deep and the truck will do a wheelie the whole distance. I hope this helps.

I don't have much experience with lipo's. If that's the 11.1v batteries then it might fit but it would be tight. There is a really good video on airsoftgi.com (I think) that goes over several brands side by side so you can see how big they are and which boxes are tougher.

No. It requires a esc and battery appropriate to that esc (7.4v NiCd or Lipo battery is most common)

Yes - you'll need to use an extended 'battery bar' holder on the truck and stick the foam insert on the end of the battery because the battery is taller and narrower than standard.

Thanks for the inquiry. As long as it is brushless can run any lipo battery that is made for this model.Best regardsRichard

Not as is, there maybe some mods to do that or use inverter to change voltage to 120v first, I imagine you could connect to Battery by bypassing outlet connection and just wire battery connector to truck battery but would be risky and void warranty, maybe cause more problems

No, its not compatible with any car/ truck with a 12v battery witch is ever car truck its made for 8v its going to short and it will b a waste of money.

Any battery with small tamiya connector 8.4 nimh is what it comes with but I run a 11.1 lipo for better rof and the stock gearbox can handle it

You can make your own or buy one online just. Ale sure the connectors are the same. I did this when I bought a 5000 mah 2s lipo for my buggy. Hope this answer your question.

The idea is do not over charge or discharge any Lipo battery (as well as your cellphone and laptop). Just full charge the battery and shoot tens of rounds, disconnected the batteries and put them in a proper place, then you are good with lipos.

Sorry don't know if you can use that battery but I use one in my Lamborghini and ups drive time and performance, but not sure in your use.A very good battery, check size and connection. Jeffbryson7@yahoo

HA! Nope.This is a motorcycle battery. You could probably get it to work. You'd need a couple of them to get enough amps to crank the diesel motor.

The wraith does not come with a battery. I ended up buying what was needed to use a lipo 2s battery. Search Harley Designs on YouTube...that guy knows his stuff. He had a wraith build series that's really good.

Yes it can run on non lipo batteries. But what kind of car/truck are you planning on putting it in? The only thing about this esc is that you have to solder the battery connentor on it.

Hello, I'm running my lunch boxes on 7.2V 5000mAh NiMH batteries just fine. They last a lot longer than back in the day. On your 2nd question Did you mean Lipo batteries or a brushless engine?
