Considering buying a big 5400mAh+ capacity pack which stands a good 25mm tall and also thinking of swapping to JRX-S at the same time.

Any help appreciated, cheers!

I've been running the 5400 25c Fantom/Thunderpower for more than a year now and they fit fine, the 5600 50c IP also fit fine no dremeling needed.
