My first LiPo packs, from 2010, were soft case packs, and are still being used today...still used in harsh off-road environment. But hard cased packs are preferred. Having a very secure battery retention system is a must for any battery.
UNtrue like most of your miss information.. get real crushy. now adays most local or club allow you to run any pack soft or hard.. only thing is hv must be charged to 4.20 volts a cell.
