Default SMC 6000/28C

I was wondering if and when the SMC 6000/28C will become ROAR legal?

I would set the charger to a 6000mah max. Then the charger is only capable of 5amps, so charge it at 5amps.

The packs have been submitted to ROAR and will be on the list once they release the new approved list for May 1st.

Our Lipos can be charged at 2C with no issues so this means 12 amps would be fine but there are not many chargers that can go that high.

I'm not familiar with the Venom charger but you want to make sure it does a full CC/CV charge.

Sweet thank you very much. Just purchased one of these, and it should be here Friday. Cant wait to see how it performs for me. Also its kind of cool that it will be on the ROAR list the same day I will be racing with it.

It has the same retail as the 5200/24C as the plan is for this pack to replace it and were able to offer more and keep the price the same.

The case is the same size case as our 5200/40C which is 24.5mm x 47mm x 139mm.

With the wire position on our packs you should find a way to route the wires so they have some play as if you use the stock wire routing it will pinch the wires and they can get ripped from the tabs and we can't fix that. I will try to have my employee take pictures of what they do to solve this.
