However, that said, it DOES NOT hurt, in fact I encourage it, to have higher C ratings (as most of you would agree) for the mere fact that the battery will run cooler, last longer, and increase system efficiency as a whole.
There are new technologies coming soon that will be amazing. I know for a fact that the RC industry was one of the first to adapt to the lithium and a lot of the lithium battery manufacturers out there knows this. I've seen lab results that will only make our hobby safer and at the same time provide lithium cells with amazing power capabilities. I for one am patiently waiting and will try my best to get some of the cells to test them.
