external wire, single brick pack.. 25C+ as much mah as you want to stuff into wherever you put it, (stock pouch) IF you want to do a battery peq then your options are a bit more limited as the packs get taller with more mah, at which point whatever you can double up in it that will still fit.

Most builds with that kind ratio and motor configuration I've read about all use external batteries.. it's just the easiest way to wire it and not worry about cramming the pack somewhere.

The gun I'm building will be running an external 7.4 with a 4600mah hardcase pack.. it'll pretty much be the size of a m4 mag.

Your build is not a stock replacement build or a slight upgrade... this is a super high performance gun. Properly powered with 11.1v lipo and 10:1s you're looking at RoFs over 45 rps, possibly into the mid 50s.

I personally would not field such a gun without a computerized fet to bring down auto rate of fire, even if you only use semi. DSGs in that RoF range only shoot 300-350fps unless you like a lot of maintenance or replacing gearbox shells.. you're shooting closer to 400 with a full stroke in the high 40rps.

I could be wrong... but probably, most likely not, as far as I know. Last edited by lurkingknight; March 24th, 2014 at 13:28..
