THE 3S LIPO PACK.

The NeoRacer runs on a standard 3-cell (3S) at 11.1 V nominal, and the ships in the box. Because of international shipping rules around lithium packs, Neobotics doesn't include the battery itself, so you'll bring your own. The recommended specs and the safe charging routine live one page deeper to help you pick the right one.

01 / WHAT THE PACK POWERS

WHAT THE PACK POWERS.

  • The Jetson Orin Nano (~10 W idle, ~20 W under perception load).
  • The motor + servo (peaks of 60 W under hard accel and turn).
  • The Wi-Fi antenna, MCU (microcontroller unit), and LED indicators.
  • The buck regulators that step 11.1 V down to logic-level rails.
02 / STORAGE

STORAGE VOLTAGE.

A 3S pack left at full (12.6 V) ages quickly, and a pack left flat (≤ 9 V) won't come back. The happy middle is around 11.55 V, and the included charger has a storage mode that brings any pack right to that voltage. It's the kind thing to do whenever the car will sit for more than a week.
