Issues upgrading to 775 and Ryobi 40v 8AH

I've been using Ryobi 18v on 550s and everything has been great. I've been wanting to push the top speed and torque so I hooked up a Ryobi 40v and tried 775s and 555s but it doesn't go and the batteries flash 2 middle green lights.

The car runs the 40v in first gear and reverse (motors in series) but the battery protection trips in second gear (parallel). I tried adding a second 40v battery in parallel to split the load but same thing happens.

I know I should add a PWM like MGCStem or Peanut Speedy Squirrel, but I first wanted to see how much of a difference 40v makes.

I've seen people run ryobi 40v direct to 775s, so what's going on here?

Playing Old Endless Runners

I used to absolutely love games like Canabalt, Solipskier, and Ninjatown Trees of Doom... but those game haven't been compatible with android OS in many years. I've tried Solipskier flash through an emulator but it sucks.

Are there any other ways to play these games on modern phones?

I've played other newer games like Alto, Pin Out, Smash Hit, Jetpack Joyride, but none have really hit for me the way those old games did.

FM Radio upgrades

I've got a kid trax Corvette C5R I've been working on. I'd like to upgrade the FM radio specifically because it resets the channel whenever it's turned on. It has a single button to tune to a different station and stakes minutes to find something that isn't mostly static, and I can't tell what station it's on. I just want a radio there we can set to 100.3 and it stays in memory. The radio slot is 2 inches high by 5.5 inches wide, and there's a fake temperature controls under it I could cut out as well so there's 4 inch high by 5.5 inches wide space that can be cleanly opened up. Obviously I could put in a single or double din, but I'd have to cut the dashboard out wider. I would consider doing that, but I'm concerned with the power draw of a radio designed for a real car. I don't really want Bluetooth or mp3, I just care about reliable fm. Any recommendations?
