We all know how much "success" I have had with maxamps... I will say one thing in their favour, after having about 20 maxamps packs I became very proficient at lipo soldering and assembly...

Their customer service is ok, and I am sure they will replace the questionable pack. Good luck with them replacing the ok pack. If it has the 300 cycle warranty, you may want to "ensure" that you send them back 2 bad packs...

As Arct1k said, the 5000 cells do not perform well, maybe 15c at best. Not sure if they are any better than the 6000 packs, as I only used those as lower drain 10th scale packs. I did use the 3000 cells (6000 packs are 2p made out of 3000 cells) and they were very poor. Not even 15c cells IMO...

Good Luck! Go with the neu packs, you will definately see the power difference.
