Instructions on how to install the battery reviewed in this video.
I mentioned dads in the video - obviously I meant to say dads/moms as there are plenty of moms involved in RCs.
This particular RC is the 4x4 Mark Jenkins edition.

I just ordered two 2s lipo ovonic 50c 1500 mAH batteries with deans plugs. For RC cars from 1/18 scale to 1/12 My question would be. What would you recommend getting to run both batteries in tandem. A series or parallel connector?

Parallel gives you longer run time, series multiplies the voltage.

if you run series you need the brushless motor
Would I need to buy a new charger, or could I use the one that came with the unit?

Great question!! NO you can't use the stock NiMH charger on a LIPO battery. Here's the official statement by Traxxas: "NEVER charge a LiPo battery using a NiMH charger (or NiMH charging mode on a combination NiMH/LiPo battery charger). LiPo batteries can be damaged by over-discharging, which is why the electronic speed control on all Traxxas models has built-in Low-Voltage Detection to alert you when LiPo batteries have reached their minimum voltage (discharge) threshold. LiPo batteries should be stored partially charged, and require a LiPo-specific charger."
I need help the battery that came with my car doesn’t want to work I’ve charged it for about 2 hours It still doesn’t want to work can u help me ?

It's difficult to say what the problem could be. If the motor turns on but the controller is not functioning, it could be that the controller is not synced to the car. We have a video on this. If the battery itself is not charging, I'd call the company's support number. There are a number of things that could be causing the problem.

Yeah, that's way too much battery for the 1/16 scale.
