Just ordered 3 Turnigy 2200 20C 4S packs for $16.59 each.

With shipping,it came to $75.74 to my door.

Hard to compete with those prices.

the Weight #'s/shipping brackets are Cool tho...being able to know How much weight before your in the next price bracket....Coooool...i wish more online places did that.

i get my stuff from HK NO later then 2 weeks AT MOST....normally it'll be 6-10days from when they ship.

And No taxes or duties....common...can you really complain.

Do you think it hurt to use a 5s in my starter box.....I plan on going brushless soon and when I do I would like to be able to use this battery in my car..I know a $s will work but 4s isn`t any fun in bl 8th after you`ve driven them on a 6s

Thanks

I dont think this type of connection can handle that kinda power.
