Hi guys, just got a charger and battery and looking for advice.

Battery - gens ace saddle pack....4800 mah 1s3p 3.7v each

I have linked he saddle pack in series with the wire but what amp rate do I charge at for the fsaddle pack?

Have charged saddle pack battery but when connecting to car, I get a constant orange and flashing red light on the speed passion esc which looking at the manual shows low voltage and overheating. Any ideas what might be causing it.

Have a durango 210 rtr. Did work fine, I have changed engine to mid motor and connected to gens ace battery and now keep getting this light.

Help .....

What speed passion ESC are you using?

Once the Lipos are fully charged what is the voltage per cell when tested with a multimeter or voltage tester?

Some ESC/Motor combinations do not work very well so try another motor if possible.
