I am using the 42% products range of gear on my 50cc extra at the moment... 2 x 2600mah Lion batteries, 2 x 10 amp regulators (set at 6.0 Volts, they are variable. I just soldered a set of servo leads to the output leads of the regulator and run them into the 2 battery ports of my JR 921 2.4 gig receiver) and 2 x heavy duty switches (with deans plugs) for radio.. and 1 x 2600mah Lion and a 5.0 Volt ignition regulator and Opto kill switch for the motor ignition... They are all running really well and have shown no signs of problems after a fair bit of punishment to date... all are available from DL Engines Australia...

Very happy with this setup...
