This new technology expands racing opportunities for many drivers by reducing racing expenses and giving drivers the chance to race on smaller tracks.

The Smart Boost increases the 1-cell Li-Po battery pack's voltage from 3.3V - 4.2V to 6V, ensuring that the receiver and servo receive a full 6V/3A power throughout the duration of a run. This allows the electronics to operate at their optimum levels. Additionally, the Smart Boost gives you the ability to run a 1-cell Li-Po cell with the same ESC, servo and receiver that you would normally run with any 2-3S Li-Po or 4-7 cell NiMH battery pack, including all of Novak’s brushed or brushless speed controls.

Estimated Ship Date: end of February 2009
