Here is the pack I just got for my rustler and other trucks
Flightmaxx
Spec.
Capacity: 5000mAh
Voltage: 4S1P / 4 Cell / 14.8v
Discharge: 30C Constant / 40C Burst
Weight: 520g (including wire, plug & shrink wrap)
Dimensions: 140x48x33mm
Balance Plug: JST-XH
Discharge Plug: 4mm Bullet-Connector

The actual size is:
144x51x34

The part I have a problem with is the width. I don't I'm going to be able to fit it in the rustler. I have the old chassis, does the VXL chassis have a wider battery slot? With some work I can fit them in the other vehicles.

I believe Hobbycity lies about the size to make it seem like they fit more vehicles, to make the sale.

I have emailed them asking the size and they refered me back to their web site.

Buyer beware, thier packs are wider then they say.
