New Battery
Just got my new lipo, its an Outrage 3s 3300mah 25c. It makes my truck go so fast, now I just need to upgrade my radio so I could drive it better.

RE: New Battery
Nothing wrong with it, I use my heli/plane lipos in my cars all the time. There's a lot more selection of high quality lipos for planes/helis.

RE: New Battery
Exactly my point.. I don't understand why "chris rc" thinks that plane batterys are not good enough for cars.. If the specs fit it whats the problem,
that battery is a 25c Rate and a 50c Burst... 25C Times 3300mah = 82500 then to get amps you divide by 1000.. 82500/1000= 82.5 amps discharge and somewhere around 165 amps during the "50c" Burst...I think that battery is fine...

If outrage made 2S 5000mah batteries I'd be all over them. They make some of the best lipos out there. I use their 6S batteries in my Trex 500 heli and they are great.

RE: New Battery
With a plane, your almost always going full throttle. With a car, you are rarely to never going full throttle. Im not sure about this, but arent plane lipos heavier than car lipos?
Can you tell me where I can get a hardcased plane lipo for racing then if there is a wider selection?

Chris, no offence, but you're kind of a snob. You try to relate everything to racing but quite frankly, most of the guys here don't race and more than that, most of the guys asking newbie questions don't race. So try to keep your answers relevant.
