i have used a few name brands such as NEU and SMC. i still prefer my turnigy packs for the higher amp draw setups. SMC is no good for anything larger than 1/10.

i have a pair of neu 5000mah 30c EP packs and they aren't quite as powerful as my 30c turnigy packs. the turnigys run cooler and they have more punch.

there is nothing wrong with the turnigy packs besides the shitty warranty policy and the overseas shipping. they have gotten much better over the past year with their quality control and the only problem i have had with my batteries from them over the past 2 years was a broken balance wire. all i had to do was resolder it to the tab and it was fine.

edit: from what i have seen, a turnigy 40c pack is similar in power and punch to a hyperion 35c.

i just got my nano-tech 5000mah 45c 4s pack last week and i can't wait to try it out. i will be able to give it a good few runs next weekend and i will report back with the results.


They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
