I've been looking at those myself. They are 10C cells continous, 15C Burst.

8000mah = 80 amps continous, 120 amps Burst.

Not Bad at all for the price........But.....

I think alot of the upper end Motors geared aggressively would puff those.

With conservative gearing and some punch control enabled to help tame those amperage spikes, they could be a good setup.

I like the 5S 8000mah setup that actually fits the battery compartments.

It's easier to gear conservatively and control amperage with 5S than is 4S IMO.

I have ran 10C cells before. They don't deliver the amps that higher C ratings do, but with 8000mah, 80 amps isn't bad.

This reminds me of the good reviews the True RC 8000mah 4S setups were getting.

I really should invest in a data logger and do some testing.
