Brushless 8ight Batteries? - RC-Monster Forums

So, I've got an 8ight and I'm considering going brushless. I have all of the brushless equippment, though I only have NiMH batteries. So, I'm trying to see what the best bang-for-the-buck 4S LiPo batteries may be out there.

Has anyone had any experience with these?

I just purchased this for my radio (DX2.0) http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...idProduct=5461

and so far it seems pretty decent. Nice construction, good voltage, pretty balanced from the factory (only took about 4 minutes to balance out of the box). I also purchased some other items from Hobby City that seem to be of quality.

Any other links to good value 4S packs would be great.

Thanks, guys.

I'm sure the 4S 5000mAH 20C would work great... price is awesome also... Pretty much everything they cell performs according to their specs..

wow that is extremely cheap.

do you think these would perform just as good or better than true rcs 8ah 15c packs?

The 20c 5000's look like a great deal if they put out what they are rated at. Only concern I saw on those was the width. If your fabing your own tray, no problem(and plenty of room in the 8ight) but I don't think at 160mm they'll squeeze into most of the battery trays now available. At 15c, the 4100's are probably borderline on handling your amp draw requirements with 540c XL. Keep an eye on e-bay. HeCell and Enermax have been starting auctions at reasonable prices. I don't know any thing about HeCell but I got my 5000mah 4s Enermax pack for only $102 and it is rebadged Polyquest pack: Awesome! So far I have had excellent results with Enerland cells; Polyquest, Flight Power, Poly RC, Enermax..... I highly recommend them.
