Just a heads up, hobbypartz has just got another shipment of Gens Ace stuff in . Lipos like the 3s and 4s 5000 40c are now in stock as well as they still have some 2s 5000 40c's as well. Ordered myself some 2s and 4s 5000 40c, should be awsome

Default Got them quick!!

Got my order ,well sort of 1 day early, I ordered 2 x 14.8v ,4s hardcase,5000mah I got 2x 2s,7.4,hardcase 5000?
Funny thing is on hobbypartz.com then dont even have the 2s hardcase 5000mah?but they are on nitrorcx.com which has the same address as hobbypartz?and I guess they've gone to bullets on the batt ,sweet hope if and when I get my 4s's they have the same feature!!
Not even mad, unless I dont get what I ordered


Someone signed off on it LOL!!!

Do the packs come with the connectors, wires, and balance plug or do I have to order separate? I noticed that they do not have any in stock but if they come with the batteries I will not worry about it.

Thanks

Ordered 2 2S from Hobbypartz. I got them in like a day and yes they are already wired up with deans. Can't wait to see if they are as good on the track.

As per ROAR rules, " Both the top and bottom sections of the case must be secured together by glue, double-sided tape or heat seal with a label across the seam stating "ROAR Approved" in such a manner that separation of the case to remove or replace the cells will destroy the case and/or label and render it unusable in competition. "

Is the tape present on anyones "ROAR APPROVED" packs that they have received?

I got 2 packs from the states sent to the UK for under $100 ($66 for the packs and about $30 shipping) which is about £60, so not bad for £30 a pack.
