With this high C rating, will it be possible to run three Schulze 40.303s wired to ONE 42s1p Maxamps battery pack with no parallel cells? I mean, that's only 909 amps, so there will be plenty of overhead. Just curious.

Hey, I'm skeptical of Maxamps, not because the claim might not be true, but because they are making sales on a product that claims 150c before there is any published proof of it. That is bad marketing ethic that no 300C battery pack can redeem. In the hobby business, integrity is key. I just hope that Maxamps had proof of 150c before marketing the batteries to buyers. That's what matters most to me.

But if these packs are legit, it would be a great upgrade in the RC market. However I hold my stance: unless Maxamps had proof of the 150c rating before marketing the batteries, Maxamps is practicing dishonest marketing (and possibly false marketing if it turns out that the batteries are not 150c). See, it doesn't even matter if these packs can run at 150c. What matters is if they had proof of this before marketing the batteries to uninformed buyers.

When I make a purchase, it's the ethic I shop for first. Thus I stay away from Integy and other knockoff companies. Currently I stay away from Maxamps because my four 3s2p 8000mah batteries all puffed and failed, hopefully that will remain the only reason I stay away from them.
