Hmm the trakpower 3s 4900 mah is just Continuous Discharge Rate: 16C, 86.4A (not 100A or more) ????

I'll guess I won't get a better one (hmm would like these one, not in stock, Thunder Power TP5000-3SPR 5000mAh 3-Cell/3S 11.1V 40C 80C 200A)

No, the Trakpower 4900 is 25C continuous. The 5400 is 16C.

for less money you could buy a zippy 6s 5000mah 20c

http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...0C_Lipoly_Pack

2 of those in parallel is 6s 10,000mah 40c! for $270

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXUYY3&P=7

two of the hardcase in series is 6s 4900mah 25c for $340

the math speaks for itself.........

Not really...

The Zippy packs are not hard cased like he asked for. Also, the combined weight of 2 of those zippy packs is 3.4lbs while the pair of Trakpower 3S 4900's is 1.8lbs. That's a huge difference!

I do agree, there are many cheaper options...but not in a hard case.

good points. I've been back and forth about your hardcase lipos, and for the same money I can get more power. But they look so coool.......

No need to go back and forth about them anymore. They were shipped to a guy in Las Vegas last week. I now have no Trakpower packs at all.
