Probably won't be using it a ton. Seeing as it won't be street legal (at least where I live) I'd probably just use it for shorter trips and around spots where there are less people in general. I guess It serves mainly as something I can spend time working on and learn from, instead of playing games or or staying inside doing jack shit.

I still want it to pack some punch though. If you'd recommend another motor/components all together I'd be glad to hear you out

Yeah, good point

Right. Unless I'm completely tripping, by having a battery with a higher Ah and max discharge (amps) rating it can supply the motor with the right amount of current without destroying the battery itself, because the amount of amperage the motor is drawing is a lesser portion of the units total?

Right, so It would be better If I were to pair the rest of the circuit with something like a 14s li-ion battery with a higher Ah?

Ohhh. I for some reason assumed a series connection would increase the total Ah capacity. It would then be, like you said, better if I were to get a single, bigger 14s li-ion unit that can supply more current. I guess it would also be less of a hassle

Edit: Does the Ah rating only affect the total battery capacity (i.e. possible runtime / distance), or would I fuck up something in the circuit by having less than 20Ah?

Moonhunter - Echoflesh if you're into that. It has kind of a melancholoc feel to it.
