This Intellect IP-1600A2S-20C 7.4V 1600mAh 20C Li-Po is a compact race-style battery intended for 1/18 scale electric R/C applications. The pack is a lithium polymer cell format supplied in a hard case and uses standard balance and discharge connectors specified below. The description here focuses on fit, installation considerations, and how the pack affects tuning and setup on small-scale race cars.
Installation notes: the pack measures 85 x 30 x 16 mm, so confirm battery bay dimensions before fitting. The balance lead is XH2.5 and the discharge plug is listed as ABC(5102); match those to your charger and esc wiring or use an adapter harness where required. The hard case and pinned layout are aimed at straightforward mounting and protection during close-quarters racing.
Tuning role: on 1/18 scale cars the battery contributes to overall weight and centre of gravity, which can affect traction and handling. Use the pack consistently when testing setup changes so lap comparisons remain valid, and consider placement (fore/aft and lateral) when adjusting suspension or gear mesh for handling balance. The 20C continuous rating provides a predictable discharge profile for tuning motor timing and gearing on this scale.
As an onboard power source for 1/18 scale electric race cars, the Intellect IP-1600A2S-20C offers a compact 7.4V option with standard connectors and a protective hard case, suited to drivers who prioritise consistent pack form factor and predictable discharge behaviour during track sessions.
