    4S does this make sense ?

    I need 4S for my big rigger and it must be in 2x2S packs as that is how it will all fit in there. I am happy with that so far.

    Backstory. The 4S pack i used for a while was a top of the line but well thrashed and abused (by me mainly) pack of about 5000/35C therefore giving about 175A on a good day but as soon as V drops then A goes sky high and blows a Mystery 200 Esc.

    I now have a T-180 (burst 360) esc and need to sort a pair of packs to make up my power.
    The T5000 will suit me well

    It can hold 200A and burst 250A and all from a new pack

    I have looked at a lot of other options including the Nano-tech cells and the best I come up with is the T5000's as above.

    My reasoning is this
    The older pack was dumping volts as it was tired, this was shown by it puffing a little after not a lot of effort, and therefore increasing amps and killing cr@p speedies. My fault for being a muppet

    I figure that new packs will do as advertised ( I have experienced this) and the higher quality speedy will cover me.

    Any other thoughts on this ??
    See it....find the photos.....sketch it it....build it........with wood
