Default Have you seen the new Lipo's?

Check out Fantoms website and look at the new Lipo batteries! If your on the bubble about changing from Nimh to Lipo this should change your mind. 40C with an 80C burst! They had great success at the Snowbirds! Keep it up Fantom!!

The 40C's are awesome. I was worried they would make my speedo and motor run a little warmer, but the change wasnt that much of a difference. Just incase, you guys may want to keep an eye on it when switching to the 40C. If you need to, gear down accordingly....

Well I sold my "other brand" lipo's at the track so I ordered mine from Stormer since Fantom is out of the 5000s for a week. Couldn't wait to try them out.

Man what a difference! You've got to get these 40Cs. Even in stock I could tell a difference. Can't wait to see what it will do in superstock. If you want that little edge over your competition you need to look hard at Fantoms products.

Go to Fantoms website and check the specs. Personally I felt like the motor responded better with this battery. I normally run offroad and have had good luck with my other lipo's but wanted to try the 40Cs. I could see a few tenths faster laps which is always a good thing. Plus they have a great warranty program if you were to have problems. And no I'm not getting paid to say this! Give em a try!

Thanks you for your interest in the new Fantom 1S Li-Po. Street price is going to be $64.99 and we should have them available in about 1 to 2 weeks. Specs are 5000mAh 40C. We'll have more details on our web site within about 3 to 5 days.

If anyone wants a photo sent to them, please email support@fantomracing.com and we'll email you a preview photo.

Thanks,
Jeff
