Kyosho DBX VE 4WD Brushless Basher Buggy Beast RC Car! Testing the Awanfi 2S 60C 5000 Mah Battery

Went out to one of my favorite spots with the beast of a 1/10 (or more like a 1/9) Brushless 'Basher Buggy' RC Car, the Kyosho DBX VE 4WD, and a large Awanfi 2S 60C 5000 Mah. Compared to the 2S battery that I usually run it with, this really rekindled the buggy!

Ready for an Awanfi Battery GPS Speed Test with the Kyosho DBX VE ... and the HPI E-Firestorm Flux? Coming up soon!

If run with a 2S, this one really needs the extra amps, since it is a quite heavy aluminium chassis buggy with a large low kv motor and large wheels/tires. Definitely the largest 1/10 buggy I have. It now has plenty of torque to get around even on the rough terrain like here, without a need for a 3S. I like to keep this without too much top speed. I must say I love running this buggy and my experience with it was one of the reasons for getting an even larger 'basher buggy', the 1/8 Arrma Typhon 6S BLX v4.
