VintageMA · **Neu LiPo vs. Maxamps 5000mAh packs -** 03.27.2008, 11:31 PM

For a while now I have been using the Maxamps 5000mAh packs in my CRT.5 (3S - 1930/6) and XB8EC (4S - 1512/2.5d). A lot of people bash the MaxAmps packs for the Neu and FlightPower packs, but it's also been noted multiple times that the 5000mAh cells are the best ones MaxAmps has.

I've had no problems with the MaxAmps 5000mAh cell packs and they do maintain pretty decent voltage under load.

Having heard everyone talk about how impressed with the Neu packs when thy get one, I was wondering if I could get some opinions from people with experience with the Neu pack if they think I would see an appreciable difference by trying a 4S Neu pac instead of the MaxAmps pack.

Due to the size of my battery tray (Mike made me one which is an exact fit for the MaxAmps 5000mAh packs for the XB8EC) my choice of Neu pack it limited. It looks like I can get a Neu3300EP or Neu4100EP (30/60C) or a Neu3900XP (25/50C) 4S pack.

The price for any of these 4S Neu packs is less that the MaxAmps 4S 5000mAh pack - guess I am looking for someone here to let me know that I'll be able to feel the difference in punch with one of the Neu packs.
