Battery for 2 RS-395 Motors

For our 12 pound combat robot, we are using 2 RS-395 Motors with 2 P60 Gearboxes 26:1 and 2 T81 Wheels - 2-7/8 inches`.

Can you recommend a single NiCad or Nimh battery to power both batteries?

Also, we plan on using a Turnigy 20A brushed ESC speed controller. Do you think that will work or do you have a recommendation?

Hi John,

This motor have a stall current of 15A so you should be fine with a motor controller of 20A.
If you want to run the motor at it’s maximum, the rated voltage is 12V so we suggest our 12.0V 2800mAh Rechargeable NiMh Battery Pack.

All the best,

Thanks for the assistance. We ordered the battery you recommended.
