Will 3s 6000 mAh Maxamps be ok with a 10L Crt.5
 
I recently got a Crt.5 with a Feigao 10L and Maxamps 3S 5000mAh pack.
I can get a sweet deal on two new Maxamps 3S 6000mAh packs but I remember reading that the 5000 mAh packs are better discharge/amp wise then the 6000 mAh packs.
Can someone give me a hint if the 6000 mAh will be "on the edge" with a 10L in a Crt.5 (I wouldnt think so but perhaps someone more into the facts can help..)

I heard to stay away from the 6000mah and the 5000mah. I have the 5000mah and they do not deliver like they should, my vehicle cuts out sometimes but not all the time. I hear the best maxamps are actually the 4000mah. but if you can get a sweet deal depending on how sweet why not. they still will make you go.

unless you're getting a really sweet deal, then I'd avoid it. You can get a much better pack for the same money, or even cheaper. What sort of a "great deal" are we talking about here ? The maxamps packs are OK for what they are, but IMO they do not perform to their advertised specs.

I can get two 3s 6000 mAh packs AND a 8XL all brand new (for my E-Revo, running a 9XL now, or future projects) for about 250 USD including shipping.
You have to remember that I live in Sweden so to compare with US prices you have to add shipping (about USD 30-40 at least) and customs 30% ontop on that.

sounds like a decent deal, provided you don't have a source for better packs over there.

The 3S 6000 packs are too heavy for a CRT.5. For that matter a 3S 5000 is heavier than I'd want to run. If you mostly drive street or just bash around it won't be much of a problem, but if you want to be competitive on a race track or survive big jumps then stay with lighter batteries.
