    Here is a good thread to follow...

    Thunder Power is un-ethical in my opinion......the retail price is a joke and should never be paid. I think the packs are good, but not worth the 300% markup with people just taking money from a stack and never doing a thing. They called me and blasted me for not supporting them, thing is, they would never sell to us direct, we had to buy from a distributor that sells under the table for the same costs we had to pay. I will never support TP again. Jason got mad and slammed the phone down. BooHoo

    just to confirm, i love my Turnity 4s 30c 5.0 's!!!!!!!!! they have soooo much more punch than my polyquest 25 c packs, its rediculous ... i will never buy an exspensive lipo ever again. unfortunantly this decision comes after $3500.00 in the name brand lipo's...infact i down loaded the maritimo after a test run wich is what got me 66.7 mph. and to think all with sixty dollar packs!!!!!!!!A+++++++

    Geez man! I don't think the Vegas can take that aabuse, I have seen 1515/1Y on 4s that drive her pretty... I have used a 1521/1D on 4s and it was stupid power... I will try it again some day, but if she flips... oh boy, can't even think about it... losing my motor and electronics would be sad.

    Hey bustit. You got a build thread on the sprint cat? I'm getting ready to do one too!

    Thank the good lord Zippy has made rc brush less lipo's a reality for new users wanting to get into the FE world ...it just helps the sport to have more people envoled to force manufactures to develop better products that are more competitive

    killer products and killer performance......how many times have I heard reviews of how these batts compare to the kingpin enerland cells

    I just got a set of new zippys. They are equivalent to the turnigys. The only difference was the balance tap wires. The newer zippys have 8 gauge wires and 5.5 bullets. I have data on both packs and will post them when my computer is back up and running. You'd be suprised!

    Get that Puter up & working ... I'm very interested in what your data reveals . . . .

    I've been running the Turnigy 5800mah 25c 4s packs in a hydro & a mono for a few months now & can't fault them yet. All cells are still pretty much balanced after a run.

    I'll be getting some more.
    Cheers.
