They are matched by resistance

also, i managed to stuff my 4s 5000mah 20c turnigy pack in my flux today and after 10 minutes of standing backflips and speed runs geared at about 45mph, the battery was only slightly warm. not bad for 20c. it heated up just as much as my "28c+" 9000mah SMC packs. i'm guessing the SMCs are less than 20c or even 15c or the turnigy packs are underrated. either way, i like turnigy lipos

I got a pair of the hardcases, 8ga wire is is easier then 10ga as you can hold onto the wire bare handed because it dissapates so much heat. need a high wattage iron to solder them, watch out, your going to need to tweak the wire exits on your battery boxes for the 8ga wire to exit
