Hi,
This guy on eBay assures me I can use an 11v 2 cell LiPo battery in my stock Half8 and it won't fry my ESC. I've ready elsewhere and advice from my LHS is that anything over 7.2v will kill the ESC.

Can anyone advice as I've recently purchased the genuine rechargeable battery upgrade with the voltage controller. I've also bought an Integy 9.6v pack with Deans connectors. Before I go chopping things about will these big batteries fry my ESC either now or over time if I use them without the voltage controller.
Also using the genuine rechargeable battery pack and the voltage controller, the voltage controller gets very very hot. Should it do this.
Sorry if this thread should be in the battery forum but I need fedback on the ESC and the battery situation.
Thx
Bozza (newbie from the UK)
