Sorry boys! After my personal testing of multiple lipos, I am just flat out moving to the SMC 5000. Bye to this thread...

Tech Fanatic
My comments were geared more towards different manufactures having different "c" ratings. I'm sure the orion 30c pack will have more power than the orion 20c pack.
I just think that if somebody buys the orion 30c pack over the trinity or even the smc 28c pack they might be in for a shock when they find out the "c" ratings are different from one company to the next.
I've said it before and i'll say it again.......the trinity 3800 25c is incredibly fast...........you should let on track performance make your decision instead of a sticker with a rating that at this point means nothing.
Untill packs are sold with discharge numbers.....you have 2 choices
1....believe the hype
2.....go with on track performance

After my testing, I even question the C ratings of the same manufacturer.
OK, movin' on...

Also the newest Orion is 4 months old, so I think I have an apple to apple compare here.

Run for the first time my new Orion 3800 30C was impressive.Today i ran it for the second time and I got the same runtime and performance with my 4 months old 3200 Yeah Racing (5.5 min) .I was expecting much more punch and runtime from a 3800mAh 30C pack 
(misrated or defective pack ?)Im not so sure so i'll run it again tomorrow and i'll see.

Completly disappointed from this new Orion 3800 30C. 90.00 US$ wasted for a relabeled pack.Now im waiting for 2 Trinity packs 3800 25C.I hope i'll get better results with these packs.

Very interesting...I had the complete opposite experience with my Orion 3800s and locals here who ran the Trinity thought they were complete garbage so that played into my decision. Good luck and hopefully the Trinity performs to your expectations. Out of curiousity what were you running before for comparison?

I was running the yeah Racing 3200mAh.And today i ran for the first time the Trinity 3800.Performance and puch was very good this first time.Right now im recharging it.Has already take 3800 mAh and the voltage is still on 4.10v/cell.That means that the capacity is more than 3800.
