I'm Planning on buying some imr batteries for my Stryfe, which has stock motors. I was wondering what would be the max voltage i could run without blowing out the motors? 

Thanks

It all depends on how long you want them to live.  They'll take 2S for a long time with no real problems, or 3S for a much shorter life.  At that point, though, you'd just replace the wiring, switch, and motors, right?

I'm most likely gonna use 3S in my primary stryfe along with redoing all the electronics, and i was gonna slap in 2 batteries each for my loaner stryfes. Thanks for your help man.

Yup.  Barricade motors work though.  I switched 'em, and it's still running great.  And what dose LMAO mean?  Oh, wait, I think I guessed.  Never mind.
