they sag too much IMO.. I tested them for awhile, and ended going back to a small lipo, and making it easy to swap.. I tried to build or redo all my planes so that its easy to pull the packs, since doing so have gone back to Lipo's except with the turbine pack.

also, it was interesting I got a High voltage warning from my Dreamworks electric Gear off a 3S kingtech batt as well.. just ran the turbine fan in test for a couple secs, and the gear popped up.
