Nick, The trueRc cells are only 10c cells. at 4000mah thats only a 40A cont. 60A burst discharge. Thats not enough. Thats probably why you are having problems. The 8000mah TrueRc packs are fine. 80A continuous and 120A burst is fine.

Starscream, If he goes with the 5s1p pack, he will need much higher quality cells to supply the amps needed. A 4000mah pack would need to be at least 20c cont. 30c burst. to be effective. While they are lighter, they will cost just as much as the 8000mah 10c cells and only give half the run time. Its all a trade off. You are right though... For a pure racer, that may be the better solution, unless he has 20 minute mains to get through.:D
