No Air shipping is higher than standard shipping... I have heard some horror stories about the "standard" shipping. I went air and got mine in a lil over a week, got 3 day shipping in 5 days...

I sure don't remember... I paid $40 for 3 day shipping the last time I ordered...

Yeah maybe somewhere around $15 would be ok... It is definately worth it compared to getting your package in 3 or 4 weeks... ugh...

Yeah, but I wanted the packs for a big race a week and a half away...
I was also ordering with another guy so we split shipping and both got our stuff WAY before we needed them... The air shipping is a good option but it takes a bit more time to get though...

I think I"ll pick the second cheapest one. Guess I"ll be stuck staring at the battery for a week. I'm not in a huge rush right now and I only got 100$ from christmas. I want to spend some of my money on my revo too.

Ok then. Thanks for your reply! I guess I'm getting the 4200mah 30c one and a hobbypartz charger. It's a little bit more expensive than the hobbyking one but if you put shipping together the hobbyking is wayy more expensive.

That charger is grat for the money. I bought two of them for my girlfriends boys for Christmas. And if you dont have a power supply, I got tow of those on Ebay for around $9.00 ea shipped.

This is the one I got, plugs right in, without having to do any wiring changes. Its like it was made for it.
