Default Very lite Weight Lipo's

We have been using these new shorter and lighter lipo packs in the on-road and off road RC racing. From what I've noticed in the RC boating world that when you make your boat lighter it hands better and you get longer run times so just thought that boaters might show some interest in the shorter lighter packs.

PACK SIZE 95.7mm x 46.5mm x 24.7mm we call them shorty packs but they put out the same performance as the bigger heavier packs with the same Mah and C rating.

I'm not sure if anyone make a bigger MAh over 4400 but I'm sure the bigger shorty packs are just right around the corner. It seems like the lipo packs are getting bigger and strong month by month.

I hate it when a company that is selling an Item cant even bother to take a picture of what they are selling. Picture is totally wrong 3.7v 5000mah 40c and they are selling a 4400 Mah 7.4V 70C.

So true I just noticed that....

This link shows the correct specs and It's one of the better shorty packs.

Lighter batteries is not really much better with boating. There are many racers that run lipos that add weight to their boats, sometimes lighter is not better. Battery placement is looked on more than weight.
