* 4200mah Capacity
* 7.4 Volts
* 35mm X 98mm X 34mm
* Rated at 60 Amp Constant Discharge
* Rated at 80 Amp Burst for 10 seconds
* 245 grams
* Other configuration options available upon request
* Pack comes standard with JST Female taps

(from maxamps.com)

I plan on keeping my 'ol hacker master competition esc with the c50, but if these pack's doesn't give me allot more power over nihm's i'd go for something better. But what?

My main consern is speed and run time, minimal of 15 minute's. Would these pack's work?

Hi,

I use excactly the same LiPo´s from maxamp with my HV-Maxx system - runtimes about 20-25 minutes without problems.

I also use:

MaxAmps Lipoly 8000mah 7.4V RC Car Pack
8000mah Capacity
7.4 Volts
44mm X 132mm X 26mm
Rated at 96 Amp Constant Discharge(12C)
Rated at 128 Amp Burst for 10 seconds(16C)
335 grams

SUPER SUPER COOL !!!

Look at the data - only 335 grams and 132mm long (lower weight and shorter lenght than the 6300mAh !!!)

Runtimes around 45 minutes and the EMAXX seems to explode with the HV-Maxx - the first 10-15 minutes you are not able to push full throttle.

It is an awesome power/weight ratio.
