    Not a fan of Nanotech batteries. I bought 5 nanotech 3s 2200 35C batteries. After running them in my boat, they all puff. This is a RTR Joysway Offshore Infinity, so it's not pulling that many amps at all. All my cheaper batteries with same specs don't puff but all my new Nanotechs puff. Will never buy Nanotechs again.

    Nanotechs are terrible Batts, I buy Zippy's and Turnigy's over them all day long and pay 40% less.

    Horrible batteries, I've never run them in a boat but the 4 I bought for my heli all puffed and failed long before the stock E-Flite batts died and they are 1/3 the C rating! 20 vs 65C
    If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?

    Yup I ordered 2 2s packs charged them up and my boat died a few seconds later. sent the lipo to HK and they had the lipo in there shop for 34 days before they decided I should get a replacement batt, and this is after several online chats with there customer service dept. It's now been 38 days and it still hasn't shipped out. I'm never doing business with this place again. My next lipos will be revo's from Keith.

    Yeah, only 2 months, you probably made two car payments, cut your grass a few times, got a haircut and slept about 60 times...............................LOL

    2 months? That's it? Took them like 4 months to figure out I had an order I paid for they never sent...so your doing good! Hobby king won't get my money anymore.

    My opinion. .. hobby king = fail

    I had to do that live chat thing several times. It seems like everytime I could complain my RMA rec would move another step. If you're claim is just sitting there I strongly recommend getting on that live chat and let them have it. If you don't get the answer you like wait 10 minutes then sign back in and you'll get a new person. Just keep doing that over and over.

    Revolectrix is way better to deal with, pm'd revojohn with an issue and got a response within the hour, and a really good outcome from them. I'll post more on this on the Revolectrix thread soon.

    Yup Hobby King are a bunch of loosers , they don't want you to file a claim until after 45 days so PayPal doesn't have to reimburse. Paypal still got my money back for my lost shipment. Yay PayPal , boo HK , PayPal said I wouldn't believe how many claims they reimburse through HK a year.
