Looking for info on what size lipo I should get for my b4. I have a 13.5 stock spec LRP motor and sphere comp esc. Any body got any advice what lipo's I should be looking for. New to the rc world so trying to learn a few things.

Thanks for the advice

The best warranty in the buisness.

I run this in my T4 with a GTB and a Murfdog 13.5, it is awesome.

just remember to select the 23mm option and it will slide right in. Perfect fit.

those are nice packs. any update on the puffing smc's? i havent heard of many doing that in a while. smc 40c packs are nice. the new epic 40c's are good. reedy 5000 35c is really good too.

The Reedy or SMC packs are the best, in my opinion. I have had great luck with both of them in my associated buggies and trucks. Currently I have max amps in my eRevo and they are good, but I wouldnt get them, unless you buy the hard cased version.

In your buggy, with the 13.5 motor, you should be able to get right at 30 minutes with anything just at or slightly above 5000mah.

Nice pack. for $150!!!!

Seriously, I can't believe they sell any of those at that ridiculous price.

I personally run the Zippy 4000mah 25C hard cased 2S for barely $40 shipped and won every A-Main (all 5 ) that I have entered with my B4 and a Tekin 13.5T system.
With those prices you can get 4 of them compared to 1 MaxAmps and not have to worry about the battery cuz if one dies, you have 3 left!

you get what you pay for. is the battery really 25c? does it really put out the same power a trakpower 25c would?

I have a trakpower 4900mah 24c... The pack does not compare to my zippy 4000mah 25C packs.

The Zippys have great punch, hardcase and work great

the 4900 does lack some power i will say. it rly sucks actually. i shouldve compared to a better pack.

i run hobbycity zippy flightmax's in mine 5000mha 20C, on a SW4600 combo, can't keep the front end down, geared so the motor gets up to 100 120, they fit with a little wiggle room like 3mm on either side and about a mm from the top, i ripped out part of the foam spacer but only a part off the top so the lenght is still snug, to allow room for the wires i also cut a little outta the chaise for the wires

I run the Thunder Power 5000 40C pack in mt B4 and T4. All I use is one pack per vehicle. I can run 2 rounds and then top them off for the next two rounds. They fit the cars with no modification and run great!
