Wow, that's some multiple personality disorder you have there Haldir.

ok, so i've done some sniffing around and i need some opinions. Which do you think will give me the best performance seeing as they're all roughly the same price.

Thunderpower eXtreme V2 5000mah 3s packs (Max continuous discharge 25C, Max burst discharge 50C, Max continuous current 125A, Max burst current 250A): http://thunderpowerrc.com/html/extreme-V2.html

Flightpower EVO 25 5000mah 3s packs (25C 125A CONTINUOUS, 50C 250 AMP BURSTS DIMMENSIONS: 167MM/48.3MM/26.8MM): http://www.flightpower.co.uk/index.a...p^currency=USD

Flightpower EVO 30 4500mah 3s packs (30C 135A CONTINUOUS, 60C 270 AMP BURSTS DIMMENSIONS: 165MM/46MM/25MM): http://www.flightpower.co.uk/index.a...p^currency=USD

i'm kinda confused because i can either get a higher mah, or larger um... "C" values (excuse my noobness) for roughly the same price

thanks for all the help

30c.

Just go for the gold and get some 1500 nicd venom packs, and a mega 1 timed charger. You can easily get 45min runtimes and charge in 10mins with this setup.

Note the sarcasm.

But I am also partial to those venom 1500 packs too. those thing pack some mean punch. But Linc, you forgot the platinum standard. Nothing beats using a pair of Duracell 9v alkaline batteries. Dude, 18v... and think of the weight you're saving.... game over.

... trying to keep a straight face....

I do not have good enough equipment to hold up to the duracell 9v. I once tried some dollar store 9v batts and blew up my tranny and toasted a motor, the windings just melted from the raw power. The performace was spectacular while it lasted. From what I have heard schultze is the only esc that can handle that knid of power.

Way to much power with the 380 motor, it will tear that grasshoper apart. I usually save the 380 brushed motors for my 1/5 scale builds, even then I am constantly changing diffs!
