I am aware of the crap battery packs that are run in the truck. But, as stated, I buy them six or more at a time, hand them to the kids, and let them beat the snot out of them. If they burn them up, I am not out any $$$. When I bash with the kids, I let them run my LiPos.

I have three boys, ages 5, 10, and 15. They all have electric stadium trucks. The older boys have rusty's with MM5700's and the youngest has a stock Raven (picked it up CHEAP, slightly used). Supplying them all with decent LiPo packs and crossing my fingers that they don't abuse them would be silly.
