New RCM Batts - 11.12.2008, 11:04 AM

I saw some new batts in the RCM store this morning. Any info on the cells in these Mike? Are these made for you specifically? Prices look good too.

I have been testing these packs with various cells for about 10 months. They perform better under load than any other cells I have tested, so I decided to start selling them. I am working on labels for them now.
The 2500mah cells hold better than 3 volts per cell under 175 amp load(70c burst rate!) according to my Eagle tree tests! The Eagle tree is accurate to about this load, so I can't get a comparable test on the larger packs, but vs. a comparable FlightPower pack, you can feel the power difference (4s 5000mah felt like I almost added a cell!).
I have other packs, sizes as well - just not enough to list them yet. If anyone has a specific size they need, I should be able to get them - pretty much any size/discharge/capacity.
I will be testing a new 38c continuous 70c burst 2600mah pack soon as well, and should have 3s, 4s, 5s, 6s hard case packs in various capacities eventually as well. :)

Sounds like I need to pick up a pack from you when I get my CRT and GTP together. Do you have any packs that will be closer in length to a Flightpower 5000mAh pack?

Yes, they are chinese cells.
The 5s 4500mah pack is the same overall dimensions as the FP.

I have 2s, 3s, 4s and 5s 5000mah and 4s 6000mah packs in the same length as well(some have been tested a few times, but easy enough to get more). :)

I am very interested in the hard case lipos, that's a great price! When do you expect to get them labeled? I know our local tracks probably wont allow them if they are not labeled with the specs.

When someone buys a pack, they will have an appropriate label. :)

Yes, Ross - the 5s 2500s are the packs I use in my crt.5. They even survive an 8 minute run in a full size truggy(they are that good).

Mike, What combo are you running in your CRT.5? I have been wanting to run my GT conversion setup in a CRT.5, Its a lehner basic XL 1200 motor w/quark 80 and 5s 2500 25c flightpower lipo. I only have one battery for this setup, So with your endorsement I plan to buy some of these 5s 2500's and other sizes soon. Whats the possiblity of higher capacities? Like 7000 to 8000mah


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise

hmmm sound like perfect packs for the crt.5s and the ls10s ultra light weight and small too. that 5s 5000 is only 2mm too wide to fit in my tray or id buy one, too bad im running this tiny custom tray.

Mike, Do you have a 3S 2500 pack available? I'd like to try it in my 1509/1Y powered Slash or my VXL Rustler.

I have a couple 3s2p packs(5000mah), but I don't think I have any 3s1p at the moment. :)
