I have searched the forums for a answer to the most reliable Lipo batteries and have found a few brands.

MaxAmps
PolyQuest
Neu Energy
Thunder Power

I have had a few max amps packs but have only ran them in my heli so they seemed to perform good. I do not do 3-D flying so i really wasn't able to load these batteries up to see how they would do.
My configuration will be as follows-
FLM BL Chassis for Savage w/3 Speed tranny (47t spur and 16-20t Pinion)
MMM (when it hits the shelves)
Neu BL Motor (not sure on what one yet, but raw speed and power is needed)

Now I need suggestions on a battery. I want to run at least 5000mah (for good run times) and running the MMM i believe i would need at least a 100a Cont. Lipo if not more(not sure on final ratings of this controller)??? I do not mind spending money on a good battery but only if is just that, a good battery. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Nick

Not sure if this should have went in the General Discussion or not. Sorry if it is wrong.
