Just preorder them. They come in all the time and the longest I have had to wait is about a week.

Two good solid choices are the Reedy Wolfpack and the Promatch options. Personally, I prefer the Orion because they have never puffed or complained to me. Just work perfectly.

The Pro-Match 4800 shorties looks like a good option especially since its in stock.

Do you guys think the Pro-Match 3500mah pack will be enough? It's 60 grams lighter than the 4800 pack. I'm coming from 1/8 scale and weight loss seems to be very beneficial in this class from what I've been reading here.
