Ahh its the old 27mhz crystal transmitter/receiver and that is old maybe 15 or so years
I would be wary of running it on 7.4v as i read somewhere years ago the mosfets(speed controllers) were running at the higher end of the safe side and wouldnt take much to make them pop

Good Evening!
That Setup is just a little bit older than I am running in the 13-14 yr. old 'Porsche' King Tiger. That rebuild is currently running an L-Ion battery that is a 7.4 and I have noticed that it makes the Smoker 'really' pump. So much so that I had to use lithium grease on the plastic parts. I am going to go back to an older 7.2 battery now that the mechanical bits of the Rebuild are done. Good Advice, Alan!
regards,
Painless
