Yikes, 270 is a bit steep... Getting up there with maxamps...

Anyone else see Losi's batteries becoming the ROAR standard?:whistle:

I sure hope not, i can almost get 3 zippy 5000mah 5s packs for the same price.

Are the zippy's hard case, because that will almost surely be required.

Not sure if it has to do with ROAR, this battery is the same size as the 4S Losi Lipo so it can be used in the 8IGHT-E

The zippies dont but my track accepts softshell lipo's :D

You're lucky, I went to my local track with a rustler to run in an unlimited class (5s lipo, s can feigao, quark 65, and they said no softy lipos...

Does anyone know the dimensions of the losi hard case packs? I haven't been able to find them, losi doesn't seem to give those sort of specs :whip:

The specs are:
overpriced X overrated X overmarketed.

Woah- those are the same ratings as the ones found here- Clicky:na:
