question about True RC lipos

[jhautz]

What are you planning to run them in? with what motor esc setup?

I have been running the TrueRC 8000mah 5s setup in a revo and savage for along time with no issues at all. They are a great setup. My opinion is as long as the lipos are capable of 80A continuous in a MT they should be fine. I would not run the smaller 5000mah packs in this setup though they are only good for 50A cont.

What vehicle/motor/esc and what pack size are you considering.

Generally, you will just need to run a higher capacity pack to get the amp output up high enough. For Example: If a 4000mah 20C pack is good enough for your application then a 8000mah 10C pack is good enough as well. You just need to make sure you can fit it.

Another thing to consider.... I actually believe the TrueRC packs to be under rated and they are more capable than the lable represents.

On the flip side... The MaxAmps appear to be somewhat over rated vs what the label represents.

This is my opinion based on what I have seen from others that have posted actual run data using these different packs here and on other forums.

having run both, I have come to the same conclusion. now if I want something thats a good bang for buck I will get more truerc packs, if I want top of the line I will get packs made with enerland cells.
