Ok - vague and open to lots of variables question alert - with these TP4900's how much run time do you think you see under race conditions on an E-MT with something like a 8XL or 7XL...?

I was seeing about 6 mins tops on my 3200 LiPos...just wondering if the 4900's give much more.

I suppose it would take 2-3 years to get 100 cycles on them, and a race uses about 2500mah for ~5 minutes I think.
I might get some Trackpowers soon. I like the sound of 8000mah, but the maxamp batteries seem like the specs are a bit over rated.

It is possible that a 5000mAh pack runs longer than a 8000mAh pack when the voltage drops bad on the 8K pack. i wouldn't worry about runtime with 4900's.

I have 3700 packs, you will never ever want to go back after using Trackpower Lipos. The consistancy and power is gold.
