I run Turnigy's and Turnigy nano-tech....just as good as $100+ lipos. They last longer and have more power than many higher priced lipo's

Had a Team Orion Carbon $120....lasted 5 cycles. Customer service was a joke.

If you feel like spending 3 times as much that's up to you.

honestly this has been covered a few times, next time please search a little.

that said they are good batteries. i have a turnigy 5.0 thats great, a few genace packs and a nano-tech turnigy and the turnigy 5.0 is one of my favorites. balances out just fine and holds its capacity.

I've got 2 Turnigy 5.2mah 30C 2S batteries. They're still fairly new, but are holding up great.

I tun them in my electric fast cat in series and they provide lots of power. I am very pleases with them. Don't let you be fooled, the higher priced lipo's are also made in China but you pay for the name!

I have 4 Turnigy Nano tech's 6000 65-130c , done over 20 cycles so far and very good. used them against others with same RC ( Overlander extreme 6000 60c in ) and have the same run time. Good for the £ ..... or $ wherever you are.

I got what I paid for

I'll stick to my high priced ones, they last longer

Worst batteries EVER ! You are much better off paying 3-4 times as much for "name brand" batteries that wont perform better , wont last longer , but will have a nice sticker on it you can show too all of your fellow racers , and since you are paying 3-4 times as much you will have less batteries which means less drive time . See ? Those expensive batteries are so much better !


Seriously though , they are good batteries and well worth the money , buy the right batteries for the application you are using them in and they will work great .

I have 2 5.0 turnigy and 2 of the 5600 nano tech's all 2s. I love them both. The difference is crazy too. The nano tech's have so much more punch. The only problems are the US warehouse doesn't have the nanos and the wires on the 5.0s is huge (8 gauge). I have nothing to compare them to but should have some high velocity 2s 60c packs coming soon.

the nanotech packs sucked one run the had massive punch the next run they were soft and flat

the fallowing week they were flat

gen ace packs massive punch for 3 mins of a run then you find your self under jumping stuff sold those for 50 bucks
